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!
Another great video ! Oxford actually seems quite reasonable. Is it true that the richer older colleges like Christ Church or St. John's are even cheaper ?
Great question, I think they tend to have more money for grants for trips and maybe books and study technology and such things. Not too sure it impacts rent and food costs so much (but it might, depending on the college) :)
@@darkacademiaaudiobooks I can answer for Christ Church - I pay £1568 for accommodation each term. As Sam also said, one of our perks is that we get an annual 28 day vac res grant, so should we wish to stay extra, we can have up to an extra 28 days a year for free.
@@LucyWangYuxin Thanks, that's very helpful- both your channel and Sam's are great !
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
Ahaha might be even higher after 6:12 hopefully next term #manifest
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.
Now it is T&C I will defo be buying more books next term! I came into Oxford with an Iliad and Aeneid in Eng and the language which I had also already previously annotated. But will defo need to do that process again soon for Bacchae, Frogs, Hdt etc!
Nice little breakdown, still need to look at my spending for the term 😅
Ahah don't do it, ignorance is bliss 😂
Very interesting!
:)
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.
Are you asking if they charge as much as renting privately? If so, it is defo still somewhat subsardised. People who live in non-college owned accom pay markedly more
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.
Hey, that's a really complicated question to answer ofc. Instead of 'upper class', to use 'privately educated' Oxford probably falls near the top of UK unis (but not the top). Students are not allowed jobs during term as there is too much work but the vacations are longer and you can work then. Everyone can get a loan from the government to help fund things - differing amounts depending on one's need. And every uni is the same price, £9250/yr so going to Oxford doesn't cost more. Hope that helps
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?
Thanks so much, I really appreciate your support :)

Read this page: it depends on a few things (degree level, financial background, student status etc) :)
Thanks ♥️♥️
how old are you? you come across very sensible and good with money ! wish i had of been like that during uni lol
Haha thanks so much! Just turned 20
You are so type A
Lol had to look that up
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.
You know what, £11ish a day is the same as one restaurant meal! Not tooo bad!
Oh wow I would have guessed much higher!
Haha maybe next term I'll go all out
Can a international student studying in the UK author and publish a book in his own home country while studying in UK
No idea - would that be a visa issue?! Idk
personal items probably refer to things like toiletries (shampoo, products, hygiene etc), any clothes or shoe shopping/any purchases for fun!
Yeah that sounds about right thanks for the comment!
Can someone tell me if Oxford is worth it as an international student? I still have time though but it really interests me :)
On What criteria?
@@Sam.Kramer for example if I wanna study law and also like the costs to study there. I heard someone saying that studying there as an international student can go up to 28‘000£
