Solent University Independent Living: Preparing for the Transition to Uni

Solent University’s Independent Living session is an online webinar for prospective students who are getting ready to take the next step into university life. It is designed to help future students feel more confident about what to expect when living independently and how to prepare for the transition to university.

The session covers practical aspects of student life, including living away from home, managing everyday responsibilities, making friends and settling into a new environment. It also offers guidance on how to prepare before arrival, what the first few weeks may be like, and where to find support if you need help along the way.

The webinar is suitable for students considering university, with parents, carers, teachers and advisers also welcome. It aims to provide clear, reassuring advice so attendees can feel more ready for the changes and opportunities that come with university life.
