Student Bank Accounts
If you are likely to go overdrawn during your time at university, it is essential to choose an undergraduate student bank account that offers you a free overdraft that is large enough to meet your needs.
Banks recognise that the average student is more likely to be overdrawn than in credit. That's why the main selling point with any undergraduate bank account is a large, free overdraft.
Banks also offer free gifts to entice you to open an account with them. These are useful but the main benefit of a student account is that interest-free overdraft. Check what's on offer and make sure you choose the best account by reading the Money Saving Expert guide to student bank accounts.
