Student Semester Budget Planner | Excel & Google Sheets Tracker for Income, Expenses, Savings and Leftover
Built for college and university students who want a clear picture of one semester's money, not twelve months of a household budget they don't need. Enter your income and expenses for each month and this spreadsheet totals everything up automatically, including a dedicated savings buffer and a color-coded leftover so you always know where you stand.
What's inside:- Income — student grant/BAfoeG, part-time job, parents or family support, scholarships or other income, totaled automatically.- Expenses — rent/dorm, groceries, textbooks & course materials, phone & internet, semester ticket or transport, health insurance, subscriptions and a catch-all "Other" category, each with a budgeted and an actual amount.- Savings Goal — a simple "Semester Buffer" with a target and the actual amount saved each month.- Monthly Summary — total income, total expenses, total saved and the leftover, highlighted green when you're on track and red when you've gone over.- Semester Overview — all 6 months pulled in automatically side by side: income, expenses, savings and leftover, plus a semester-end total. No copy-pasting between tabs.
Tabs are named "Month 1" through "Month 6" instead of calendar months, because semesters start in different months depending on country and school — rename the tabs to match your own schedule in seconds.
Included in this instant download:- StudentSemesterBudgetPlanner.xlsx — the full editable workbook (Instructions, Month 1-6, Semester Overview)- StudentSemesterBudgetPlanner.pdf — printable blank version of every tab
