DSU FINANCE CLUB

Club Mission

The DSU Finance Club is dedicated to helping students deepen their understanding of finance by providing resources, experiences, and opportunities that go beyond the individual. Our goal is to add real value to our members—through workshops, guest speakers, competitions, and networking events that students might not be able to access on their own. We maintain an open-door policy and welcome anyone curious about finance; we strive to make complex financial topics accessible, engaging, and relevant to students of all levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our club is open to all Douglas College students, not just finance students. We offer events for people with no finance background that are interested in learning, while also offering events for students with a focus in Finance. 

  • The DSU Accounting Club runs a yearly Tax Clinic. Learn more here: Tax Filing 

  • Our club doesn’t offer personal investment or financial advice. Our role is inform, not to make decisions for you. We simply aim to make finance accessible to non-finance students and finance students alike so you can make an informed decision. 

  • We share reliable, beginner-friendly financial information along with practical tips to spot potential scams. We aim to build awareness, but we don’t provide personal advice. While our events are a great starting point, they aren’t a substitute for professional advice; there are always risks associated with investing & finance, so we encourage you to stay cautious, do your own research, and consult qualified professionals before making financial decisions.
