A laptop is a university essential and given what you decide to study, you need something catered to your needs. It can be a little pricey but luckily student discounts are here to ease the pain. Be sure to sign up to as many student sites as you can, such as UNIDAYS, they offer: up to 10% off Apple, up to 30% off HP, up to 10% off Microsoft. And here at Laptop Outlet we offer up to 15% off from our huge range of student laptops with Student Beans. Another quick tip, check with your uni to see if you’re eligible for any type of funding, example - first generation to go to university/ disability, as they often provide you with funding for such equipment or cover part of the cost.
