Uni Students How much money do you have a week to live on

I have applied for my student loan and accommodation and have worked out that if i budget for the entire 52 weeks of the year i will have £80 per week. How much money do you have a week and do you manage
Is that £80 before or after rent?

after rent


I had £75 after rent and I was very comfortable so you should be fine :smile:
I have a State Pension of £150 a week + £20 a week for my grandson who is at college. I have to feed and clothe us both. Bus fares and lunches for college. Water, TV licence, gas and electricity, I get my Housing Benefit and rent paid.
Not easy, but doable.

£250/w after rent I think, but I spend more (500 maybe, not sure).
I get £3 left after my loan...I just work for the rest,
