Navigating Financial Challenges And Enhancing University Experience
By Moneymatix
Empower Students to Navigate Financial Challenges and Enhance University Experience
Students often face significant financial challenges when transitioning to studying abroad. These challenges can negatively impact their academic performance, mental well-being, and overall university experience. Financial instability can also increase dropout rates, affecting university revenue and reputation. Understanding and addressing these economic challenges is crucial for universities to support their international students effectively.
- Are your newly arrived international students unfamiliar with UK finances, impacting their settling in, studies, or mental health?
- Do you recognise the financial challenges and distress signs among international students, and understand the harm and loss they may face?
- Are international students dropping out for financial reasons, affecting your revenue and stability, and do you understand the impact on their experience and future?
- How important is financial inclusion for international students, and do you see the link between financial challenges and dropout rates?
This event is hosted by MoneyMatiX (MM) and Financial Inclusion Forum (FIF)
