Being on the M5 corridor, Worcester is linked to both the South West and the Midlands, meaning each University of Worcester campus is a commutable distance from various towns in areas such as Birmingham, Bromsgrove, Droitwitch, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Swindon and Bristol.
This helpful guide will answer any concerns you might have about commuting, plus travel advice and ways you can excel as a commuter student.
Benefits of commuting to campus
Many students' study alongside family and work commitments, so living at home can provide the flexibility to study around day-to-day commitments.
Commuting to university also allows you to study and engage with university life, whilst being able to go back to your own home each night and stay close to your friends and family.
To see how you can still feel part of the university community and take advantage of all the University has to offer, check out our helpful commuter student guides below.
If you don’t feel like commuting could work for you, take a look at our variety of on-campus accommodation.
High quality, great value and guaranteed. Our shorter contract lengths mean you're likely to pay less rent overall compared with private accommodation. Plus all your bills and gym membership are included in your rent.
