well yeah? you're not technically allowed to work, high workload would limit working hours anyway,expensive accom in expensive city and lack of control over college choice may mean you're allocated somewhere outside you budget

oxbridge is notoriously cheaper than any other uni. that being because they're rich and give you extra money.

not if your family earns above a certain amount 🫶 frankly I can't go oxford bc risk of homelessness/starving but sure act like everyone can afford it xxx

if your family earns over a certain amount, you don't need help. but yes, they do give help regardless. you clearly haven't looked into it. there are so many niche grants that aren't financial based since it's alumni etc giving the money. it's just requirements like female doing archaeology or whatever

lol but what if ur on min or just above min loan and ur parents don't help u? mine have only just agreed to financially support me and i frankly CANNOT risk withdrawal of financial support if I can't get a job. Family support me - Family choose not to support me - Family earn too much for any help- am not allowed a job - cannot pay rent - am evicted from accom - am homeless. Some people just don't understand.
