Budget calculator said £980/mo for London — accurate if you cook. Leeds is £720 and honestly better value. Happy to share my breakdown.

Just read an article from Dr Line and got amazing advice in her Student Health group. That group has become one of the most supportive spaces for students.

I was terrified about moving to the UK alone. Found my future flatmate on Instuly two months before arriving. That changed everything.

Why it's free

No agent fee. No upsell. Just the answer.

Study-abroad agents charge for information that should be public. We built the tools instead.

Typical study-abroad agent
$200–$2,000 in fees
✕ Pushes partner universities that pay them commission
✕ Generic advice, not matched to your nationality
✕ Slow answers, no visibility into their sources
