It is an(other) example of profit driven behaviour of the University on the cost of students. Since the autumn term of 2016 there is no student discount for the swimming pool anymore. They are even so rude to advert for the costly Sports and Wellbeing Membership. It would costs me more than twice a year for just going for a swim each week.
In EVERY swimming pool in Southampton I get a student discount exept in my own University. This is disgraceful for the university by all means and a backstep for sports development.

After consulting with Sport and Wellbeing they informed us that they have removed price options for staff and students. They now just offer prices for members and non-members, hence the change to your price. This is all decided by Sport and Wellbeing as the facilities are not run by the Union. You can contact Sport and Wellbeing at sportandwellbeing@soton.ac.uk to find out more information.
