www.studentloans.co.uk
The
Financial Services Network is one of the largest money website groups in
the UK, with a wide range of information on borrowing, investment,
insurance and banking.
Our
main site for students is
www.studentloans.co.uk, which contains information on finding loans,
bank accounts, and credit cards which are aimed at the student market.
This site also has tips on saving money, and on finding the best part time
and summer jobs for students.
A
range of different student loan options are explained on the site. In
addition to those on offer from the Student Loans Company, we explain
about the personal loans and overdrafts available from your bank, and
about Career Development loans. We also look into the option of student
mortgage loans, as a way of reducing your rent outgoings, and getting an
early start on the property ladder.
When
you have completed your course, many banks make graduate loans available
for a limited time period. These are often at very favourable rates when
compared with standard personal loans, although there are a number of
pitfalls our site can advise you against falling into.
Our
job tips section focuses on how students can make better use of their
existing skills to find the most suitable part-time and summer work. There
can be enormous differences in both pay and working conditions between
different student jobs – our guide shows students how to choose the best
options.
We
all know that students like to enjoy a good drink – so our guide shows how
to enjoy going out, without having to spend a fortune. We also show how to
find cheaper forms of entertainment, or simply how to resist the
temptation of going out, and carry on with that all-important studying.
Some
credit cards are available to students, although we strongly recommend
reading our advice section before applying for one and ending up on the
edge of your credit limit, paying a very high interest rate. We would also
strongly advise against the temptation of applying for store cards, as
these tend to incur even higher rates of interest.
We
also have tips for students on the move – from how to save on motor
insurance, to asking if the car is really necessary. We have included
information on finding the best train fares and flight deals.
Our
money saving tips section has handy advice on other issues such as
reducing your bills, asking for (and getting) student discounts, and
eating well for less.
