Abstract	Postsecondary students face a myriad of complex financial decisions and tasks, such as financing their education, choosing a major with a return on investment, budgeting, and crafting repayment strategies for credit card and student loan debt(s). With respect to student loans, many borrowers feel "burdened by the repayment process" and express regret for having borrowed so much. Understanding students' utilization and attitudes when receiving assistance with financial decision-making can serve as a first step when evaluating on- and off-campus financial services. This brief examines data from 45,624 students at 104 higher education institutions that participated in Trellis' Fall 2021 Student Financial Wellness Survey (SFWS) with a focus on students' comfort discussing financial situations with others and students' monetary discussions with financial aid advisors. [For "Student Financial Wellness Survey: Fall 2021 Semester Results. National Aggregate Report," see ED625724.] (ERIC).
