Best Wireless Carriers for Students on a Tight Budget in 2019 - Project Center Kumbakonam
One of the most important things for a student is a constant and
reliable data connection. Visible is one of the simplest solutions with a
truly unlimited connection. Nearly every carrier has an unlimited
option, but with Visible, there's no credit check, and the monthly price
stays constant. So, you'll know exactly how much to set aside each
month.
Visible uses Verizon's LTE network so you can be confident you'll have one of the biggest networks available. Still, check to make sure you have coverage before hopping in. Even if it doesn't work out, with no contract, you're free to try another network if you need to.
Visible allows you to bring your own device such as the unlocked Pixel 3a or buy or finance one on their website. It's worth noting that an unlocked phone can be brought with you to another carrier if you want to switch in the future, although the upfront cost is higher. But with an included unlimited hotspot at 5Mbps, Visible is probably worth keeping for quite a while.

If you can live most of your life with Wi-Fi access, Metro by
T-Mobile may be one of the best value plans available with a low
starting price of $30 per month with 2GB of LTE data, which is slowed
after with no overage fees. You also get unlimited talk and text. Larger
data packages are available if you find yourself away from Wi-Fi a lot
of the time.
With data management and diligent use of Wi-Fi, Metro by T-Mobile can be a fantastic value, and T-Mobile's growing and improving LTE network will provide a solid and fast experience. As always, check your coverage before signing up. A great plan means nothing without service.
Thankfully, unlocked GSM phones will be compatible with this carrier. So, if you are coming from outside the US or are bringing your phone from your old plan, it's likely to work.
Google Fi starts cheap but can get expensive depending on how much
data you use. If you keep your data usage low, the price is fairly
competitive. Where Fi really becomes a good value is when you travel.
Google Fi supports roaming data for the same price as the U.S. in more
than 200 countries. If you need to travel to another country to go home
or to school, Fi might be one of your best options.With data management and diligent use of Wi-Fi, Metro by T-Mobile can be a fantastic value, and T-Mobile's growing and improving LTE network will provide a solid and fast experience.

Pros:
- Fast T-Mobile network
- Unlimited talk, text, slowed data
- Large data packages available
- Great phone compatibility
Cons:
- Hotspot is extra
- Smaller LTE network
Google Fi can dynamically switch between Sprint, T-Mobile, and US Cellular in the U.S. to give you a competitively sized and fast LTE network. On a global scale, no other carrier can match Google Fi for coverage. Even with the great coverage, if you take advantage of Wi-Fi for data, Google Fi can end up being cheap enough for most students to use without worry. Just keep an eye on data usage.
You can use pretty much any unlocked GSM phone with Google Fi but to get the network switching feature, you'll need a compatible phone. You can either buy one from Google Fi or check your device for compatibility.
Pros:
- Three networks in one
- Same price for international roaming data
- Works with most phones
- Free data-only SIM
Cons:
- Network switching only on some phones
