Think Ahead - finances
Hey all,
I'm currently on the think ahead programme and will struggle a lot during the first year with my finances. As it's a fully funded course and I receive a bursary (below min wage!) I'm not eligible for any student funding. Can't even apply for a student bank account
Any tips on further support out there? They have a hardship fund but doesn't seem accessible. Part time work may not be an option due to the intensity of the course (studying and placement)
