USMDr. Jennifer A. O’Sullivan, an assistant teaching professor of finance in The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) Gulf Park’s School of Leadership, was recently featured in WalletHub's piece about the Annual Percentage Rate (APR), “What is APR?” written by WalletHub Managing Editor John S. Kiernan.

In her contribution cited in the article, Dr. O’Sullivan urged consumers to be vigilant about paying attention to APR when making decisions about taking out loans of any type, and to also employ financial calculators to assist them in making informed choices.

“It is very important that consumers use a financial calculator, such as the ones on WalletHub, to understand the true cost of a purchase and to compare loan offers,” Dr. O’Sullivan noted.
