Cardiff rent

Hi guys I am starting a computer programming course next September 2024. I am hoping to move into Cardiff early February or march to give me some time to get used living in Cardiff again as I lived there before during my uni times.

My plan is to get a temporary job, in Cardiff whilst renting a flat I’d prefer to live on my own. Live in my current flat until I start my new course and stay in a uni accommodation might have to be a house share. From previous job the money I saved up and use that for my flat in Cardiff until I move into a student house share accommodation and plus use part of my tuition fees to cover that part of rent.

But just needs some advice if it was difficult having a job and doing university was to stressful to keep up with rent?

Hi there,

Just to check, you're asking about balancing a job and university to cover living costs? I rely on a combination of a student loan and part-time work. This is challenging but doable if you time your days right, it's more helpful if you have a flexible job. Do you know what kind of job you'd get?

All the best,
