How do I open a student bank account?

To open a student bank account, you’ll need to provide evidence that you’re entering higher education. You may be required to provide an acceptance letter from your university, and proof of ID and address.

It’s a good idea to shop around to make sure you’re getting a good deal. Many banks will entice new account holders with introductory offers, and we’d urge you to consider whether these are suitable for your needs. Find out more at Save the Student.
