Southampton is the place to be!

Overall
The university of Southampton is one of the most diverse universities I have been to. Located on the south coast of England there is plenty to do outside of lectures. The new forest national park is a short drive away and the coast even closer. There are plenty of amenities being so close to the city centre with plenty of restaurants, shops, cinemas and more. 

The campus itself is lovley. It has been maintained to a high standard and covers a large area. There is plenty of bus links between campus’s and if you need to commute from your accommodation there are many options to choose from. Whatever course you end up choosing Southampton university will not disappoint.

This year abroad was a very important experience for me. It was hard work but I also had a lot of fun with students from many different cultures. I can strongly recommend studying at the University of Southampton.

If you travel a lot you should buy a travel card. Travelling without it is very expensive. Travelling by bus is cheaper than by train but also very slow. If you want to meet local people you should join a society at the university. Thre are many different societies so you will find something interesting for sure!

Expected experience
Rosemary N

Overall
The campus of this university is not so beautiful but it is very nice for a university which is over 100 years old. My expectations of this university were met, as modules were exciting and interesting and the work load was manageable yet challenging. Lecturers were varied with their enthusiasm of their topic and willingness to help. The campus is highly diverse which the university itself embraces.
