History of student funding in the UK.

My time at University has almost come to an end and the thought of leaving and no longer being a student brings with it quite a lot of stress. I have really enjoyed being a student but as I will be graduating in July I am beginning to worry about what I am going to do for money once my final student loan is gone and how long it will take me to pay off my student debt.

However, should us students of today be more grateful for all the financial support we have been given during our time at university or have we not been given enough? I was interested to discover how student financial support and tuition fees have changed over the years so I have created this timeline of important dates in the history of student funding in the UK.

How to do well in a job interview.

Graduation is rapidly approaching and after 3 years of student life it is nearly time to enter the world of employment. I don't know about my fellow third year students, but I am really stressing about finding a job once uni is over. It probably doesn't help that after 3 years of studying I still have no idea what job I want to do, hopefully I am not the only person having this problem?!

However, everyone has to find a job eventually and in order to bag that dream job you must first be successful in your interview. I know from personal experience that interviews can be pretty scary so I have created a tried and tested guide on how to ace a job interview to help lower your stress levels and boost your confidence!

Review: Ceremonials

. 

This review post may seem a bit random on a blog about finishing uni but music is an essential part of getting uni work done and of student life (well it is for me anyway, I can't just sit in silence and work!) 'Ceremonials' has provided the soundtrack to all the hours I have spent doing uni work and I love it so much I have decided to review it for you, hope you enjoy.

My top 5 student blogs.

With only three months to go until I hand in all my final year university assignments, I feel now is the perfect time to start a blog about how I feel about leaving my student life behind and entering the world of employment. Over the past few months I have spent hours searching the internet for jobs and employment advice but I have been left feeling worse than ever as apparently there are no jobs out there!

Reading about unemployment statistics can be quite depressing, so I have decided to turn to the blogosphere in an attempt to find some inspirational, personal stories from graduates who have found their dream jobs. So far I haven't had much luck but I have found some interesting blogs about student life and finding employment that I would like to talk to you about.
