Advice needed pls.
DS will hopefully go to uni in September. He wants to go to sheffield but is only predicted BBB so probably won't get in. His next 3 choices are Loughborough, Aberdeen & Hull.
We have been looking at accommodation for all of them & can't decide if catered or non catered will be best. I also have no idea how much I will need to give him every week for food etc
He will only get a loan for the minimum amount as my partner who is not his dad earns too much. This pisses me off but that's a whole other thread!
I think he will get about £3500. He wants a room with an en suite & I don't really blame him but are shared bathrooms really that bad?
Can anyone give us their opinion so I can start saving now? How much is a reasonable amount?
