Ellen Dixon: Union of Students' Associations Pres says students are forced into more work, turning to food banks as rents rise
Student associations say students are being forced into more work and turning to food banks, as rents rise.
The student loan for living costs and student allowance rose by $20 from April 1.
It follows a $25 weekly increase in Budget 2022.
Union of Students' Associations President Ellen Dixon says there are landlords and property managers that monitor those financial changes.
She says there's a difference between mum and dad landlords and those in property management companies who follow those trends.
