Young people have lots of questions when it comes to university.

Should I go? What about debt? Does it help my career plan and yes, how do I pay for it?! There are other big unknowns as many young people live alone for the first time and engage with money in ways they have never done before.

MyBnk’s Education Director Sharan Jaswal joined BBC News to help young people find out what owing tens of thousands of pounds in student finance means for things such as their credit rating and hopes of owning a home.

Financial education is not compulsory for Sixth Formers in England, meaning many young people miss out on vital information just at the time they need it most.
