Bradford "the runaway winner": cheapest degree in Britain!

Guardian article this Saturday which was targetted at new intake students covering such things as accommodation, student loans, bank accounts, renting, broadband, insurance etc.

They had researched accommodation costs in University-owned halls, private student blocks, and shared houses and flats in student areas. Bradford was the runaway winner; the University has the lowest-cost own-accommodation at £53.50 a week - laisteredge Lane Halls are Britain's cheapest; it has the cheapest private halls (starting at £49 per week) and its "survival" costs (food and going out) were also the lowest.

Well - that must make Bradford the top of at least one league table - cheapest place to get a Degree in Britain?
