Save Money by using Campus Facilities

Now, we’re not saying that you will be living the J-Lo lifestyle. However, if you make the necessary cuts you can certainly adopt his work hard play/hard mentality and enjoy all aspects of uni’ life. Therefore, it is very important that you take full advantage of the opportunities available to help you save money like using the cheaper facilities avialable on campus.

As well as course equipment the university shop will also sell a number of items, including food and drink, at a discounted price. The price difference may seem very little on individual items. However, over a period of the year the discount should mount to a significant saving. 

Also do use the college canteen to eat. They are there to provide a wide range of food to meet all students’ dietary needs at an affordable price. Some canteens are pay as you go, however other canteens work on a meal card basis, which allows you to pay a large bill at the beginning of term, which will cover your food for the whole term. Whilst this is a very convenient way of handling your food bill, as it means one less trip to the bank, be very careful that you allow the money on your meal card to cover your food for the whole term or else you may end up paying more.
