I'm also doing my first year of uni. So far I've only spent £5 on materials. And it's coming out fairly sharp.
Also check out Antman's other thread (in progress) . Same guy, but more detail and some slight differences in the way he did it.

Also search for vacuum forming on youtube. There are a few tutorials to make a homemade vacuum form table for pretty cheap.
