Things not to miss

  • "I would say that the most essential elements are the residences and the campus tours. They enable students to take a sneak peek at what could be ahead of them."

    Bianca-Minodora Caministeanu, graduate, BA (Hons) Journalism

  • "It's a perfect opportunity to really get a feel for the University. Staff and student ambassadors are always on hand with answers to any questions you might have."

Getting to the open day

We are situated in the heart of Southampton city centre. Southampton benefits from excellent access to airports, train stations, ferry terminals and major motorways, so getting here should be no problem at all.

By car

Southampton is just 75 miles (120km) from London and 21 miles (34km) from the Channel ports. During open day events there will be no parking on the main University campus apart from blue badge holders. The nearest car parks are located about 10 minutes' walk away, at Grosvenor Square (SO15 2BE) and Bedford Place (SO15 2DS). If you are a blue badge holder please email us at ask@solent.ac.uk to reserve a parking space on the main campus.

By train

The nearest train station is Southampton Central. For more help with arranging train travel, please visit the National Rail Enquiries website: www.nationalrail.co.uk.

Travel voucher scheme

We offer a travel voucher scheme for some of our events. Guests who live outside the local authority of Southampton City Council can apply to receive an Amazon voucher that covers the cost of their travel (up to the value of £50). For more information and to make an application, please email us at ask@solent.ac.uk.
