Living expenses and additional costs
Budgeting for your living and day-to-day expenses while you are studying will vary according to your personal needs and wants.
A total of around £338 per week is considered a reasonable average for about a 40-week year, which includes the 30-week UCL academic year plus the Christmas and Easter vacations.
As a guide, for a first-year student living in a UCL Hall of Residence the cost per week of your main items of expenditure is likely to be around:
| Per year (40 weeks) | Per week (40/52 weeks) | |
|---|---|---|
| Rent | £6,280 | £157 (average) |
| Food | £2,000 | £50 |
| Household goods | £400 | £10 |
| Insurance | £66 | £1.66 |
| Personal items | £2,280 | £57 |
| Leisure items | £1,000 | £25 |
| Travel | £904* | £22.60* |
| Books and equipment (includes laptop) | £600 | £15 |
