How to open a student bank account

A new school year is upon us, an exciting and busy time. There’s lots to look forward to, as well as many things to organise.

 

One of the first things you’ll have to sort out is a bank account in your new home. We've updated our guides for student bank accounts in the US, UK, Australia and Canada to help you pick the right one for you.

 

Our scholarship of the month is the Chevening scholarship, a prestigious programme for master’s students looking to study in the UK.
