Student current accounts

Student current accounts are available to all students in full-time education. In addition to the regular banking facilities of a standard current account, they offer a number of incentives, such as rail cards or retail discounts, for the duration of study. These accounts generally have impressive overdraft facilities that would not be available through a standard account.

We assess 107 criteria when rating student current accounts. Amongst these are:

• Introductory offers
• Facilities and banking services
• Banking transactions available
• Overdraft facilities and durations
• Range of additional incentives available such as discount concert tickets
