One of the biggest advantages of studying in Leeds is that it is relatively affordable compared to other major UK cities. Accommodation, food, tuition fees and entertainment costs are lower than in cities like London or Edinburgh. As a result, it's easier to make your budgets stretch further. According to a study on budget-friendly UK cities for students by Liberty Living, Leeds came in at an impressive number seven!
