How much does it cost to live at Oxford University for a term?

Just some clarity on accommodation around 0:50 and 10:00 ish - in my college, everyone pays the same rate no matter their room (you get one at random). In other colleges, you pay based on the tier of your room so you have more choice over how much you spend!

No joke - yesterday I did the exact same calculation, I went through all my card transactions for the last term and added them up… safe to say was much higher than yours

You're obviously sensible with money. I hope your parents are able to help you out, because there is no time in your life when having some extra money makes such a big difference to your quality of life. Also, you should be buying books and building up your own Classics library. Buy the book if you are going to need it regularly, or if you are going to want to write in it; use the library if it is something you will only read once.

sam, i love your videos
tell me one thing, There are many Scholarships available for students, How much tough is to get one from those?

I get all my groceries delivered by Waitrose to the back of my college. Costs me £80 a week. Worth it though! I eat like a king.

Nice little breakdown, still need to look at my spending for the term 😅

[katautumn]

personal items probably refer to things like toiletries (shampoo, products, hygiene etc), any clothes or shoe shopping/any purchases for fun!

I’m surprised accommodation is not subsidised at all by Oxford colleges. I was paying £820 for my ensuite room in central Oxford last year. So do they charge you exactly like private market? In Cambridge, college accommodation was way cheaper.

Hi Sam I have a question. I've always felt like oxbridge is a place for upper class people where their parents pay for everything. Is that true and to what extent. This is my main question are there students who do part time jobs along with managing studies in oxford?? or does everyone have money to support themselves.

how old are you? you come across very sensible and good with money ! wish i had of been like that during uni lol

Can a international student studying in the UK author and publish a book in his own home country while studying in UK

[abilucy]

Oh wow I would have guessed much higher!

[helin.]

Can someone tell me if Oxford is worth it as an international student? I still have time though but it really interests me :)
