DD is starting at Cambridge in October. We're trying to get our head round costs (DH and I didn't go to uni so not sure what's normal).
At her college you have a card that you can charge all your food in the dining hall to. That is then added onto your bill the following term, so term 1 she will pay accommodation only, then term 2 she'll pay accommodation plus the food from term 1, and so on.
Can anyone give me a rough idea of what it would cost to eat 2 meals a day in the dining hall, so we can work out how much to put aside for the start of term 2? Guessing she might have breakfast in her room most days or similar- they have shared kitchenettes but not full cooking facilities so I think most meals will be in the hall. She isn't extravagant but equally I'm keen that she eats well and doesn't feel she has to scrimp.
Thank you.
