Toronto, ON (October 15, 2012) - University of Waterloo’s Accounting and Finance Student Association (AFSA) is proud to provide a unique and innovative mobile application offering students instant access to campus information from their smart phones.

Available on Android, Apple and BlackBerry devices, the free mobile application provides accounting and finance students at AFSA with access to current campus information, including events, academic and social dates, directories and important campus news.

The AFSA Mobile App is a result of the strategic sponsorship and alliance with the Certified General Accountants of Ontario (CGA Ontario) and the CampusCurrent Mobile Platform.

"AFSA’s CGA Ontario sponsored application gives us the opportunity to reach our students who are always on the go,” says Terrance Kwok, VP Communications at AFSA.

Similar custom mobile applications are also available at seven other post-secondary Ontario schools.

“This mobile app is a great tool for AFSA students and we’re excited to help get it into their hands,” said James King, vice-president, business development, CGA Ontario. “Whether at home studying or heading out the door to class, students are now connected with the information and resources they need to succeed.”
