Comparison of Uni Housing costs

Very useful chart showing the current average cost of Uni housing in a selection of Uni cities - half way down this page -
Tuition fees: How much does university cost in the UK? - BBC News

Bristol now costs £3,000 a year more than somewhere like Liverpool or Cardiff.
Choose carefully.
This is definitely something to consider when you're choosing universities! Thanks for sharing this article, it's really helpful! Some really interesting statistics there.

Now into my final year - just to give a view on the practical side, I've found that the affordability of cities might also affect your student life quite a bit. If living costs are lower, you might be finding yourself spending a bit more on your social life, hobbies and activities etc than you would be if you were living in a more expensive city, for example. So, definitely something to consider when choosing universities!
