Hello Cougars – we’re PNC Bank, and we’re excited to join you for the 2025-26 academic year.
To start, we’re not just a bank, we’re your bank, and we’re here to provide banking
services and financial education programs for CSUSM’s students, faculty, and staff.
Not familiar with us? That’s okay.
We’re the sixth largest bank in the country, serving individuals, families, and businesses coast-to-coast, planting our roots deep into the communities we serve.
Our bankers live and work here in San Diego County and leverage the resources of a big bank to provide financial services to our neighborhoods, schools, businesses, and sports teams.
We partner with some of the region’s most impactful nonprofit organizations to ensure they have what they need to improve the lives of our communities, and we are the official Women’s Business Champion of the San Diego Wave FC. Now, PNC gets to be part of the Cal State San Marcos ecosystem, but what does that mean for you?
For starters, we’re committed to providing you with convenient financial services, including:
- Two on campus ATMs located at the Student Union and Campus Way Café, including one advanced-function DepositEasySM ATM that allows users to withdraw cash (including $1 bills), deposit checks, and deposit cash into their accounts.
- Products which feature digital tools including Low Cash ModeSM, a game-changing technology that helps customers avoid overdraft fees and take control of payment decisions when balances are low or turn negative.
- PNC My Finance Academy, a virtual financial education program featuring articles, podcasts, videos and other resources that are easily accessible to students and can help them work toward building healthy financial habits.
- A co-branded website, www.pnc.com/csusm hosted by PNC Bank, where students and employees can complete account applications, and find financial and educational information.
We’re also here to help prepare you for financially secure futures and contribute to your mission of being the national leader in social mobility. Our team is working to deliver tools and resources that can help empower responsible decision-making and provide financial education for life beyond the classroom.
Throughout the 2025-26 academic year, there will be opportunities to engage with our University Banking team in person through curated events where you can walk away with real world strategies that you can use immediately on topics like budgeting for the semester, managing financial aid funds, preparing for student loan debt, investing basics, and so much more! We can’t wait to share more details when they’re ready.
While you’re getting settled on campus, we’ll be working behind the scenes so you can focus on what matters most – your education.
We hope you have an excellent start to the academic year. All of us at PNC are excited to embark on this journey with you.
