How to budget at university- Penryn Campus
I’ve got a really important topic to discuss with you all… how to budget at university, especially when studying at the University of Exeter’s Penryn Campus in Cornwall. Whilst I am fortunate enough to receive a Student Loan, like many students I still massively have to plan my budget around all my weekly activities. Let’s see some of my favourite hacks around a range of topics and suggestions…
Financial Support – Disabled Students’ Allowance
University is a brilliant and transformative experience, but it can be financially daunting for disabled students. I received financial help in the form of a Disabled Students’ Allowance, which the University of Exeter helped me to secure. In this article, I’ll be talking about my experience with receiving a Disabled Students’ Allowance, and other bursary or funding options while studying at the University of Exeter
Cost of Living – How the University of Exeter supports students financially
Finances were one of my main concerns when exploring university options, something I imagine is even more relevant now than when I applied three years ago. However, the range of schemes and resources for financial support that the University of Exeter offers reassured me that money did not need to be a barrier to higher education.
"One of my favourite memories from the Business Management course was during my third year when I completed a year-long placement at Microsoft. The skills that I developed during my placement year continue to aid both my academic studies and my transition into the graduate job market.
This invaluable experience provided me with the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge from my course to practical, real-world scenarios and problems, significantly improving my self-belief and workplace confidence."
