Do I bite the bullet and apply to go to university to become a teacher or not? If I do that mean being poor for 3 years

  If you're not sure then consider other options like doing a normal degree. If you still want to teach after this then do a PGCE.

  If you really want to do it then being poor is a worthy sacrifice. Spent the last 4 years being poor but at least it teaches you the real value of money!

  Personally I would do a normal degree and a PGCE. I would also look at what subjects are shortage subjects (better grants/golden hellos etc). Ultimately you have to want to be a teacher - it is hard work, but rewarding if you can cope with it. (Don't believe myths that it is particularly poorly paid).
