Depending on where you are from, the cost of living in Lincoln may be higher than in your home country. This doesn’t mean it is unaffordable, but it is important to plan ahead and ensure that you will have enough money to pay for your tuition fees and ‘real’ living costs throughout your course, before you start. The sections below contain useful advice and information to help you plan your finances, both before you start your course at the University of Lincoln and during your studies. There are also sections below that have general information useful to you whilst you are studying.
How much you spend is a very personal matter and will vary depending on your individual lifestyle.
You should work out a budget that will cover your basic essential living costs such as food, rent, electricity, gas, water, as well as other non essential costs such as socialising.
PLEASE DO NOT rely on finding a job in the UK to cover extra living costs. The University of Lincoln does not provide financial support for international students and so you will need to make sure that you have enough money for all of your living costs before you arrive in the UK.
