The short answer to this question is yes, you absolutely can! As a student you may even qualify for a 100% LVT (Loan-to-Value) mortgage which would mean avoiding needing to pay a deposit.
Arguably the main point of concern with students getting a mortgage, is that they lack the income from work to pay said mortgage. However, nowadays, a lack of income is not seen as a defining limitation when applying for a mortgage.
It is possible to for a student to get a student specific mortgage, in order to buy a property to live in while they study. This usually does not exceed £300,000 in value and a term of five years.
