How to Prepare for Life After University 💡
United Kingdom
A relaxed seaside city with a lively student community? Southampton has a lot going for it. Drinking or dancing, the nightlife is buzzing here, with food, comedy, live music and late-night shopping thrown in. Flash your student ID in Westquay Shopping Centre and grab a bargain! Dive into Southampton's maritime past at the SeaCity Museum or try your hand at some watersports along the River Solent. There are plenty of parks for revising or picnics, too, and the New Forest is just 20 minutes away by train.

The best student accommodation I've lived in (and I've tried multiple in both Liverpool and Southampton over my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees). I would recommend to anyone looking to move to or within Southampton.
Great experience! The staff are very responsive and handle any issues promptly. The location is perfect: just a 2-minute walk to both the bus stop and a Chinese supermarket. Highly recommended.
If you want a lovely place to stay, a manager that cares about you and your safety stay here I couldn’t recommend it more. If you love your Disney as well you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the Disney Fantasy from your window!
I’ve only recently begun staying at The Bank; however, my experience so far has been nothing but positive. The room is incredibly spacious, making it a great area to host friends without feeling cramped. I love how modern the building is, and I especially adore the bean bag chair that came with the room, which has quickly become my go-to reading chair — a small but thoughtful detail I’ve really enjoyed.
