It’s essential for students to have access to broadband internet. Students need reliable and high speed internet connections to access all sorts of course resources, submit work, attend lectures online with the rise of remote learning. Beyond this, all students will need access to the internet for their down time, to stream the next Netflix true crime drama, movies, or enjoy gaming.

It’s pretty standard for most home broadband contracts to have a minimum contract term of 18 or 24 months. However, a lot of students might need shorter contracts, in line with their 1 year student tenancy. Some of you might also want the option to cancel your broadband contract early, without any additional fees.

Student broadband deals often think about these things and give you what you need, for the time you need it. They often have a shorter contract, sometimes 1 month rolling contacts or 12 month contracts, so you won’t be hit with cancellation fees at the end of the academic year.

Yes you can! Virgin Media offer 1 month rolling contract & 12 month broadband contracts specifically designed for students.

If you are wondering what broadband and Wifi speed you need as a student, it will depend on a few things. How many people are you sharing your broadband with in your house? And what are you probably going to be doing a lot of: streaming, gaming, video calls etc?

We always recommend going for the fastest broadband speeds you can afford. Fibre broadband is a great option for those looking for the fastest internet speeds, perfect for those of you with lots of people using the Wifi at the same time.

The minimum download speed we suggest is 36 Mbps.

As we mentioned though if you’re going to be heavy users of the internet as a household, you’ll likely want to go for more. Broadband and Wifi speeds from anywhere around 50 Mbps to 1 Gbps are probably more what you’ll be looking for.

You should always have the right to cancel your broadband, without any penalty, within the first 14 days of placing your order. This tends to be known as the cooling off period, where you might change your mind on what you think you’ll need from your broadband.

If you’re further into your contract than the cooling off period, you’ll have to check with your individual provider for details of their cancellation policy. If you want to cancel before your minimum contract length, you’ll likely incur some sort of a cancellation fee.

Remember you’ll usually need to give your broadband provider at least 30 days notice to cancel your contract.
