What should I do with my money in the first term?
It’s a good idea to set up a termly spending target. Most course terms are 15 weeks with some particular courses such as PGCE and NHS courses running over a term of 18 to 20 weeks.
The Edgehill Money Advice website, Banking and Budgeting, can offer some quick and easy ways to plan your termly money.
It's also a good idea to check if the student loan is correct and in term 1 open a suitable Student Bank Account
Any suitable part-time work can also help boost funds
