History

Established in 1954.

APL Federal Credit Union was founded on April 29, 1954, by eight members with a total of $ 40 in assets. For almost 50 years, the Credit union served employees of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab (JHU/​APL).

In 2001, the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) granted APL FCU a community charter to serve everyone in Howard County, MD.

Today, we continue to serve JHU/​APL staff, as well as thousands of members in the community. Although you no longer have to be affiliated with JHU/​APL to join the Credit Union, we have kept the APL name in recognition of our longstanding relationship with current and retired Lab employees.
