Why work?

Students are increasingly having to find employment to subsidise their income during their time in higher education. The extra income helps to pay for necessities, to reduce borrowing, to maintain a social life, to buy clothes and to gain skills for life after university or college. Using a part-time job to cut down on borrowing is a sound investment, as it reduces the debt that will be waiting to be paid off after graduation.
