If you're starting University this year, chances are you'll be taking control of your finances for the first time. It's easy to make mistakes, and if you're not careful you could find yourself struggling to make ends meet.
Two thirds of students confess to thinking they won't be able to afford university if the cost of living continues to rise. For the same reason, a third think that soon the costs of going to university could outweigh the benefits of going at all, according to a new survey by Lloyds TSB Student Banking.
At the same time, 1 in 5 students admit they haven't had any help or guidance when it comes to setting a budget for university; which is where Mr Hall comes in.
