Students must ensure that they have secured their sources of funding for their studies at Robinson. This may be from the Student Loans Company, parents, external funding providers and others. It is also critical that students consider their budget very carefully, so that it is clear how much money you have available to spend each term and don’t run out before the end of Easter term!
A general guide to finances and expenses can be found here: Undergraduate and Postgraduate.
Particular attention should be drawn to the University’s estimated living costs, which set out how much the typical student should expect to need to budget for each month.
The College’s Financial Tutor is Siôn Hudson, and his role is to guide you with your finances as a whole if you need assistance, but also to help point you in the right direction if things get tight: there are various sources of funds within the University and the College, which you may be eligible for depending on your circumstances.
The College has a Student Support Fund available to help with certain costs, for example to meet some of the expenses of academic, social or sporting initiatives of particular note, to contribute to certain welfare costs, and to relieve financial hardship. There are also several grants and prizes which may be open to you.
