National Student Money Week
This week is National Student Money Week. Throughout the week, we are sharing advice and resources from our Student Funding team around reapplying for Student Finance, moving out of your accommodation, avoiding debt or risky behaviours, and protecting yourself from financial scams. You can read the team’s blog posts below.
Reapplying to Student Finance
It might feel like you have barely finished last year's student finance application, but it's that time of year again and time to reapply to secure your funding for the next academic year.
Moving out
Moving out of university accommodation to a private rental can feel a bit daunting, but there are a few things you can do to make sure you are prepared and keep yourself protected.
Avoiding risky behaviour
University can be costly, and some may consider borrowing money or making investments to help with costs while studying. It's important to understand the risks of borrowing and investing.
Protecting yourself from financial scams
We have prepared some resources for understanding scams and fraudLink opens in a new window, and how to keep yourself and your money safe.
You can visit us in the first floor Library foyer on Thursday 7 March, 10am - 2pm, where we will be joined by West Midlands Police who can offer expert advice about avoiding financial scams.
