Students advised to work

Students should work part-time or during holidays in order to keep their debt as low as possible.

This is the suggestion given by debt advice provider Debt Free Direct.

Derek Oakley, operations director for the organisation, also recommended shopping around to get the best deals available on such services as utilities, mobile phones and supermarket shopping.

Furthermore, studying daily and weekly expenditure could also be helpful, as well as asking whether a purchase is really necessary.

Mr Oakley said this questioning could apply to "anything from a daily cup of coffee to a monthly satellite TV subscription".

Research by Push, the independent resource for prospective students, has found that student debt now exceeds £4,000 for each year of study.

According to figures from the Liberal Democrat party, 400,000 graduates have not made repayments on their student loans up to seven years after graduating because they are not earning more than the £15,000 threshold.
