It can be pretty expensive being a student. There are so many expenses to consider, from tuition fees and course materials to accommodation and food... Oh, and a social life of course.

It’s that time of year again. A-Level students across the UK are trawling through listings to decide which uni they want to go to and what they’d like to study. Other, more mature students who’ve decided that uni is the path for them begin to stress about the long application process. Whoever you are, it's a tricky period.
