    unfortunately it isn't very well advertised/ respected that your parents are meant to make up the difference between the max student loan and what you get. sadly this means loads of students are struggling for money :(

    So glad you talked about the loneliness feeling at uni! I felt the exact same at the start and can still occasionally. Great to hear it’s not just me as no one talks about it!

      I have a question - let’s say you start uni , and within like 2-4 months you decide to leave, what happens to the money that you’ve borrowed from the government (honestly I have no idea if you’ll be able to answer this question because idk whether you’re well off or not)

      Carla Silva because you pay per term, if you left after one term you’d only have to pay back however much maintenance loan/tuition loan you borrowed for that term

    Just finished my first term doing English and American Literature, currently watching this instead of doing my assignments! 😂 ngl I have struggled to find a solid group of friends despite trying with flatmates, course mates and the society I joined, even at my new part time job, everyone’s nice we just haven’t clicked. On a plus side i manage my money a bit better not going out 😂 but yeah, anyone got any advice?x

      claire ward I had the same problem in my 1st year. So instead of going into a house with people I wasn’t friends with I went back to halls and it was the best decision I ever made. I now have a close group of friends and we’re all got a house for next year. So I’d advice not just jumping into a house for the sake of moving out if you’re not 100%.

    Stupid question, if you can’t find anyone to house share with what’s the plan 🙈

    • @gemcockrell
      @gemcockrell Pƙed 3 lety +1

      Emilys reborns I know people who are living in halls again, or are even commuting from home if they live close enough (but I know that this is obviously not an option for most people!). But second years can still live in halls, I have a friend who is doing that!
      But I think most people just end up house sharing with their flat from first year, so if you are staying in halls in first year, then you’re pretty much guaranteed to have people to live with.
      Also, if you don’t mind living with strangers, there’s always Facebook pages where people are advertising rooms, so you could always live with them! If you talk to them beforehand, you can figure out whether they’re your type of people/whether you get on with them, before you commit to living with them, or you can always meet up with them to see! Obviously I know that not everyone is comfortable with living with people they don’t know very well who they just found on a Facebook page, but that’s always an option too. I hope this helps!
