Students can claim back money from their TV Licence fee if they don’t use the service for 100 days or more. The scheme may prove extremely popular for first and second year students who will be living off campus from July onwards.
The University breaks for nearly three months during the summer, and many students choose to go home for some or all of the summer.
One second year student commented; “That’s really handy to know; I’ll be away all summer at home and it hardly seems fair to pay for something I won’t use!”
