All students wishing to participate in the Student Loan Scheme must contact Madge Welch in the Student Office. Where this is so it is stated in the data section for the institution. The advantages are that it reduces uncertainties due to currency fluctuations, and makes it possible for a student to be able to afford to study at a university where accommodation costs are much higher than at home. If room and board is included then you will be required to pay to UL two cheques to cover the cost of accommodation in Devonshire Hall or whichever Hall has the higher fee. Cost of travel is relatively easy to estimate.
Cost of living is rather difficult, especially as all students have different patterns of living.
In the next edition we plan to give an indication of the general level of costs for different countries, largely based on subjective feedback from previous students. This page is maintained by Naomi French. Last updated 12th September 2001.
