It was not legal for me to work
Personal spending habits
Naturally, due to exchange rates the cost of comparable goods was higher in London than in Tucson. Housing was less expensive due to the fact that the costs were bundled and specifically aimed at being affordable for the student.

Second-hand household items
Personal comments
Keep in mind that there will be general, immediate sunk costs involved with housing, food and furnishing that will be incurred. Stay the course, cook your own food, and look for sales to help reduce the total cost.

What can I say. It is market economy. Education becomes kind of commodity. I have a feeling that the University concerns more about money than the students' quality of learning.
