Furlough
On January 5th, 2010, the credit union became aware of the University of Illinois furlough announcement and members’ concerns over the personal financial impact that will result. Since UIECU is dedicated to serving the University of Illinois, it’s important to us to offer financial relief to those affected by these budgetary measures. If you need assistance during these unprecedented financial times, know that we have solutions for you.
