Southampton - our city
We’re a thriving, diverse city on the south coast of England, less than an hour and a half away from London.
Whether you’re looking for shopping heaven or a skateboarding collective, keen to dive into the local music scene, want to lose yourself in the crowd at football or cricket, or fancy a bit of climbing, Southampton has it all. We’re a friendly city that’s easy to explore on foot. And with beautiful parks (perfect for people-watching) scattered across the city, you’re never far from green space.
Book an open day
Our open days are the very best way to see what Solent can offer – a perfect opportunity to talk to our lecturers and meet current students, discover our facilities and explore our campus.
