Outside campus housing normally costs anywhere between £400 and £600 per month. Besides, living costs between £200 and £400 are expected for food, transport, and leisure on a monthly basis. In fine, living costs would be round about £12,000 to £15,000 out of your pockets each year, besides tuition, depending on your lifestyle and residence options.

Finding work while studying at Durham University is relatively easier because the city has a good student population and a variety of jobs available. Jobs are often available on campus or in the surrounding area in hospitality industries such as retail and tutoring during the academic year; the Careers and Enterprise Center supports students in securing jobs and work experience. Although it is challenging to balance work with studies due to the huge workload at Durham, it is important you manage your time really well to make sure your work does not spoil your academic commitments.
