DC will be sharing a student house in an average uni city and we're trying to work out a reasonable contribution. I've looked at various theoretical lists on a couple of uni websites but would be interested to hear in practice what current students manage on.
Our current plan would mean that DC would receive £89 per week in total after their rent, but not bills, has been paid. This would therefore have to cover food, electricity, water, gas, phone, travel (minimal), books, going out.
Does this seem about right?
