Employees from Wells Fargo visited Charlottesville Albemarle Technical Education Center Monday.

Wells Fargo employees gave seniors tips on how to get good credit and paying their bills on time. Employees from the bank say senior year of high school is the perfect time for students to start thinking about banking.

"Its very important at this age, the older high school age, for planning on getting into college. How are you going to pay for it, buying a car, how are you going to pay for it, renting an apartment. They are going to check your credit for that. Are you prepared?," said Wells Fargo Banker Robin Davis.

October is National "Get Smart About Credit Month."
