Essential Training for Students before University
At FromHighSchooltoUni, we are passionate about equipping students with the essential life skills to thrive independently after school.
Picture this: you, confidently stepping onto the university campus, armed with more than just textbooks and notebooks.
​
From mastering time management to learning the basics of budgeting to cultivating critical thinking and building resilience, our comprehensive masterclass is your ticket to success - whether that is in university, or if you are taking a gap year, starting an apprenticeship or diving headfirst into a professional or independent career.

You'll learn how to:
​
-
Create a realistic budget that works for you
-
Keep track of your income and expenses
-
Save money and avoid debt
-
Find ways to earn extra money
Sounds good, right? But don't stop there! Read our Student Budget blogs for more!
