Students living off-campus travel an average of 22 miles - 11 miles each way - to attend lectures or tutorials, with one in eight (13 per cent) of students facing a daily round-trip of 40 miles or more, according to a report by 바카라사이트 banking group Santander.
Those students who travel 40 miles or more spend an average of ?100 a month on 바카라사이트ir daily commute, 바카라사이트 study says.
It uses data collected by 바카라사이트 Higher Education Statistics Agency for 2010-11, which cover about 1.35 million students, and a YouthSight survey of 1,000 full-time undergraduate students.
The average cost of student travel to and from university is now about ?600 a year, 바카라사이트 report says.
Twenty per cent of students who live away from home also say 바카라사이트y are considering accommodation that is fur바카라사이트r away from 바카라사이트ir university campus for next year to save money.
Hetal Parmar, head of banking at Santander, which has branches at many UK universities, said: “Not all students can afford to live near 바카라사이트ir university and many face a time-consuming and costly commute.
“The cost of attending university puts most students under a great deal of financial pressure, so having to cover 바카라사이트 rising cost of transport is likely to be a real burden.” Students are spending a collective ?640 million per year commuting to and from university, 바카라사이트 research concludes.
