The aim of this article is to analyze the process of introducing financial education into the lives of EJA (Youth and Adult Education) students at a public school in the city of Maceió / AL. An exploratory descriptive research was carried out, through the application of questionnaires, during the months of June to September 2019. The data showed that the students presented default behavior and lack of knowledge of the financial control tools. It is concluded that the university extension project was relevant for bringing information in an easy and entertaining way to students.
