    Your Finances While Studying: A Guide

    Getting into university should be an exciting and invigorating feeling: something that you celebrate and cherish with your family and friends. However, a cloud can hang over some of those students who are concerned about how they will pay for their tuition or fund their lifestyle while they invest in their course.

    For such individuals, money matters can take the front seat over the course of their studies, producing anxiety and concerns. That’s why we’ve compiled this short guide — to help you manage your finances while studying in a confident and care-free manner.

    Make Use of Support

    There are various levels of support out there for students who feel a little more pressure than most when it comes to cash. For these students who are often from disadvantaged backgrounds, there are support mechanisms out there to provide assistance. These include:

    • Scholarships, which reward those who performed well in school
    • Bursaries, which get people onto courses which are under-subscribed
    • Grants, made to those who qualify for the grantee’s criteria
    • Loans, which are provided by a number of different firms across the US

    All these schemes are well worth researching to see if you can take some money off the cost of your studies and reduce your financial burden as you work hard to achieve your degree.

    Temporary Studies

    Another way to cover the costs of your studies is to only wok on your course part-time, to work on it remotely — over the internet — or to use transfer credits from other studies you’ve taken to reduce your workload. All these decisions can help you work a little to continue to earn a wage to support your lifestyle.

    Excelsior College transfer credit for courses, for instance, allows students to change their minds on which course they want to study, and use the credits from previous courses and modules to contribute towards their new degree program. This is hugely helpful for those who’ve had a change of heart in the course of their studies, helping reduce the financial burden of making a change to their degree.

    Strict Budgeting

    Finally, no student should go to university or college without an idea of the budget that they’re going to be working with, and how they can save money to ensure that their lives are as free from financial concerns as possible as they work. You can save money while studying by:

    • Sharing accommodation, bringing your housing costs down
    • Cooking instead of eating out, and shopping for cheap and healthy food only
    • Ensuring that your nights out and social life is as cost-effective as possible
    • Making use of student discounts and other coupons to further reduce the cost of living

    All these strategies are regularly undertaken by students who are studying on a shoestring budget, but you’ll only be able to draw up your own budget and sensibly work on your studies without breaking the bank if you take the time to examine your finances each month in a responsible manner.

    Use the tips outlined here to make sure you’re financially secure during your studies, giving you time to focus on your degree and not your bank balance.
