How about living at home?

You may want to stay in your current home when you study, particularly if you have family or work commitments and are within fairly easy travelling distance of the university. You might decide you are most comfortable there, and it might be the most economic choice for you.

Universities now offer a broader range of courses which means that it is often possible to find the course you want locally or regionally.

Distance learning options also enable you to study from your existing home.

Athough there are many benefits to staying at home, you will need to consider that if you want to enjoy a full student lifestyle this can be more difficult.
