Llio Davies
Course Studied: BA (Hons) Artist Designer : Maker
Allowance Choice: £500 Campus Cash
How has the award made a difference?
I have been able to use the campus cash for lunches every day, I know I will be able to have free hot or cold meals on campus which has saved me a lot of money. It's been really helpful with printing credit as well, as that can mount up. Next term, when I have my accommodation payment, I will save that money and attend trips with my course. We have already discussed a trip to France which I'm excited I can now attend.

Allowance Choice:
Catering
How has the award made a difference?
It has honestly relieved so much stress I had about financial issues! The allowance for food every week reduces my weekly food shop bills, plus it's a lot quicker and easier to grab a sandwich from K1 if I'm busy rather than going home to cook. The accommodation element pays over 4 months of rent, which is obviously a significant amount, it has been amazing to be able to relax a little about money.

Joel Pinney
Course Studied: BSc (Hons) Computer Science
Allowance Choice: £150 Amazon voucher and £350 Campus Cash
How has the award made a difference?
The award has been a huge help to me personally and financially to help towards my studies. I was awarded £350 campus cash which I use for food, I was also awarded a £150 Amazon voucher that I used for Academic equipment e.g. books. As I live at home and travel in to university, I was given help with transport that consisted of a train pass and Metrider bus pass instead of an accommodation payment. I feel the award has motivated me further.

Course Studied: BA (Hons) Graphic Communication
Allowance Choice: £500 Campus Cash
How has the award made a difference?
I was unable to use the scholarship for student accommodation as I live at home. However I was offered £1,500 towards my tuition fees instead. I also had £500 Campus Cash. As I study Graphic Design, I do lots of printing and the Campus Cash helped a lot towards printing and any materials on site.
