LIFE AT SALFORD
Life on campus
On campus, there's lots to get involved in: from joining a society, to exploring our sports centre and fitness classes, to winding down after a day of lectures in our Students' Union bar and cafe. We also have beautiful green spaces for you to relax, with Peel Park situated right next to our main campus.

In the city
When you're not in lectures or spending time with friends on campus, heading into Manchester city centre is a great option. We're just a 20 minute walk from Spinningfields, but with our on-campus train station (Salford Crescent), you can be at the heart of the city within minutes. The 50 bus is also free to students, meaning you can take advantage of our campus at MediaCityUK and discover the breathtaking views of the Quays.

Our Students' Union based in University House is the place to go for all your student queries once you're on campus. Home to askUA, in here you'll also find our student radio station Shock Radio, Atmosphere bar and cafe and our common room.
