Annual rent for a student room has risen by almost 15% in the past two years and now takes up most of the average maintenance loan, a new report has warned.
Rents rose by nearly £1,000 to £7,475 for this academic year, compared with 2021/22, according to analysis across 10 key regional university cities by student housing charity Unipol and think tank the Higher Education Policy Institute (Hepi).
