Nope.
I think it's because I'm doing a numerical subject, and I haven't ever really needed to do any essays or anything else which has required me to reference any texts. There have been recommended reading books for a lot of the courses, but I've generally just studied from the lecture notes and it has been a success so far.
I thought about studying abroad, but decided against it for the same financial reasons you are facing now. Is there any way you can source a sponsorship or something similar from somewhere? Otherwise, perhaps apply for a job as an extra on Neighbours?
