Solent Insight Series - Money matters: Finance, living costs and budgeting

Welcome to the Solent Insight Series, a virtual webinar series designed to support prospective students as they prepare for university. Parents, carers, teachers and advisers are also very welcome to join.

This series is here to guide you through every stage of the journey to university, from choosing the right course and applying through UCAS, to writing a strong personal statement and preparing for life as a student.

Each session is packed with practical advice and useful tips to help you feel confident about the transition to higher education. Whether you’re just starting to think about your options or already preparing your application, the Solent Insight Series has something for you.

What does this Money Matters webinar cover?

Join us as we explore all things finance, from tuition fees and maintenance loans to everyday living costs and how to budget effectively as a student. We’ll share practical strategies for managing your money, highlight what support is available, and discuss how part-time work can help boost your income while studying.
