How to use the Student Budget Calculator

  1. Enter how many weeks the term lasts and your income for it.
  2. Enter your weekly costs and one-off course costs.
  3. See what's left — and how many weeks your money lasts.

What does this tool do?

Student loans and grants usually arrive in lump sums, which makes it easy to overspend early. The calculator spreads your income over the term and compares it with your weekly spending.

It also shows the weekly allowance you can spend and still break even.

Why use it?

  • Built around terms and weeks.
  • Weekly allowance to break even.
  • Shows when money runs out.
