Finance

Learning to manage money is a skill we ideally all need to learn at some time in our lives. Whether we like it or not, money management is a crucial part of university life. Below are some services and support we offer as a union, what the university offers and what external services and partnerships offer.

For any advice and guidance, please get in touch with us and we will be able to steer you in the right direction.

JMU offers free and impartial advice when it comes to money through their Advice Team. Here you will find advice on budgeting, student discounts, student funding, tax advice, dealing with debt, gambling and addiction support, work and volunteering opportunities.

To help you manage your money while at Uni, LJMU works in partnership with blackbullion. Through this partnership, LJMU students can access a range of online financial planning tools and resources. You can log on and register today by using your LJMU email address.

You may be able to borrow money to help pay for tuition fees and to help with living costs. You might also get extra money on top of this, for example if you’re on a low income, are disabled or have children. Please visit the applicable Student Finance section below:
