Collegedale Branch - Coming Soon

Collegedale, TN, Personal and Business Credit Union

Collegedale grew up around a campus and a snack cake. Southern Adventist University has anchored the town since 1916, and McKee Foods has baked Little Debbie treats here for generations, right off the parkway that carries the name. Tucked against White Oak Mountain only a few miles east of Chattanooga, Collegedale has quietly become one of Hamilton County's most prosperous communities.

CommunityAmerica is a not-for-profit credit union, which means earnings go back to members rather than outside investors. The result is better rates, lower fees, and a financial partner with a real stake in what you're building. Our bank in Collegedale, TN, sits on Apison Pike in the heart of town, making us an easy stop whether you're a Southern student, a McKee employee, or a family putting down roots in Ooltewah.

Student Loans Near Southern Adventist University

Collegedale Mortgages and Home Equity Loans

Collegedale Wealth Management and Money Market Services

Collegedale attracts people who think carefully about the future, from career to family to legacy. CommunityAmerica's wealth management and investment services help residents and business owners build strategies grounded in their real goals, never a one-size-fits-all template.

Wealth Management Accounts & Products

Before we recommend anything, our Collegedale advisors take the time to understand what you have built and where you want to take it. Whether you're focused on retirement, saving for a child's education, working through estate planning, or exploring trust services, we build a strategy around your life. We work with individuals, families, and business owners at every stage.

Investment products are not NCUA-insured and may lose value.

Money Market Accounts and Share Certificates (Certificates) in Collegedale

Not every savings goal calls for market exposure. A money market account or share certificate can be a smart, lower-risk way to earn more than a standard savings account, with competitive rates and terms you control. Our team can help you match the right product to your timeline, whether that is six months or six years.
