Student Money Week

National Student Money Week is taking place between Monday 3rd and Friday 7th March 2025. During this week there are a number of events you can attend to access support and advice with your student loan, budgeting, bursary applications, and more! Alongside the Student Advice team, your SU team is here to support you on any financial queries and questions you may have.
