A glance at the pie chart provided reveals how much
money
British students spent per month on different categories of items,
along with
their income sources in 2016.
Overall
, it is evident that student loans, family and part-time jobs were the major sources of student income, the majority part of which was spent on rent.
While
most students decided to move out from home when they attended college, not surprisingly, half of their expenditure was used to pay for their rent. Second in terms of expenditure was food, the amount spent was only one-third of rental expense, at 124 Eurodollars.
Money
spent on socialising, travelling and bills had a moderate level between 52 Euro to 69 Euro. With regard to the sources of
money
,
although
80% of undergraduates had student loans, the
money
couldn't cover all of their expenses.
As a result
, one in seven students needed to either get financial support from their family or find a part-time job.
On the other hand
, the data provided reflected that less than half of undergraduates had previously had a saving habit. During the year in question,approximately 40% of pupils were qualified to get financial aid.
