Financial support,
with postgrad scholarships
You may have some concerns about money while you study. As a Solent student you'll be living in one of the most affordable cities in the South, but to provide some financial support, we offer two scholarships particularly for our international postgraduate students.
This year Southampton Solent University celebrates its 20th anniversary as a degree awarding university. To celebrate, we are offering a £2,500 fee reduction to all international fee-paying students joining our September 2025 postgraduate courses.
As an additional bonus, this award can be held alongside the Solent Postgraduate Taught International Excellence Scholarship. So if you are eligible for both scholarships, you will receive an overall reduction in fees of £4,000.
The city's safe,
the rest is pure adventure
Our campus is in the heart of the city centre, which means you’re within walking distance of a range of restaurants, shops, bars, pubs, cinemas, museums, and more!
Not only is there lots of things to do on your doorstep, but we’re also just a short journey away from London, Bournemouth, Winchester, and the New Forest, and a short ferry ride from the Isle of Wight.
If you love sport, you’re in for a treat. St Mary's Stadium - home to Southampton Football Club - is a 15 minute walk from our East Park Terrace campus. And the Utilita Bowl - home to Hampshire Cricket and regular international fixtures - is just a short train ride away.
Explore the opportunities,
You'll find an amazing future.
We are committed to investing in our already world-class facilities.
From computing to law, sport to film production, design to engineering, our students get hands-on experience with the latest industry-grade technology and gain vital practical experience to help prepare them for their future careers.
