Living costs

Living costs in Lancaster compare very favourably to those in other urban areas. Nevertheless, we recommend that you check our student pages to see the current estimate at the amount it could cost you in Lancaster. Expenditure on accommodation, household costs, social and incidental expenses varies according to your lifestyle and personal circumstances; we suggest that you plan your budget once you have identified your preferred accommodation options, as housing costs are likely to be the principal expenditure you face. Please note that for students requiring a visa to study in the UK, the Border Agency of the UK Government prescribes a minimum value of funding which you must be able to access in order to cover your fees and living expenses
