What we offer:

Careers support

The Careers Service is available to you for up to three years after you graduate, so that you can continue to access personalised one-to-one appointments, career-enhancing events and helpful resources. Within the first 15 months, there’s also extra support available as part of Careers’ Grad Support Unit. This is all accessible by registering for a graduate account on MyCareer.

Postgraduate Scholarship

Bath Spa University graduates progressing to one of our taught Master's courses could be eligible to receive up to £2,000 towards the cost of tuition fees. The discount is available to UK/EU, international and part-time students. Please note that the fee reduction is not available for teacher education qualifications. More information is available on our Postgraduate Scholarship page.

Find out more about other scholarships, bursaries, awards and funds for current students.

If you have any questions, please email daro@bathspa.ac.uk.

Access to Bath School of Art, Film and Media and Bath School of Design workshops

Art and Design alumni are welcome to come back to Sion Hill and Locksbrook campus to use the Schools of Art, Film and Media and Design workshops. You can find all opening times and costs through the Alumni Workshop Request form.

Library access

Graduates can purchase library membership for £50 per annum - a discount of 50% - (or £30 for six months). This will allow you to borrow up to 5 items at a time, and use the study and enquiry services. You will need to register to use this service, so please contact the Library in advance of your first visit.

Please be aware that due to licence restrictions this does not include access to all the electronic resources provided by the library but graduates will be able to use a selection of these, including, for example, JSTOR and Drama Online for 6 months after graduation.

If you would like to use the library for reference purposes only, you are welcome to register as a reference user free of charge.

For more information please contact the Library at library@bathspa.ac.uk.

Degree transcripts and certificates

The Alumni Records office can help you with University references, validation of your award and replacement certificates and transcripts (fees apply for replacement documents).

Please get in touch at alumnirecords@bathspa.ac.uk.

Campus visits and reunions

Alumni are welcome to come back to visit the University at any time. Our campuses at Newton Park, Locksbrook Campus, Sion Hill and Corsham Court are open throughout the year, and you are free to visit and have a look around on your own. If you are planning a casual visit to one of our campuses rather than a reunion, please take into account the following:

  • Catering is available in our four campuses all year around, however timetables vary during the summer.
  • You will need to pay for parking at Newton Park. Please note that parking space at Corsham Court, Locksbrook and Sion Hill is very restricted. If you would like more information please email a.milton@bathspa.ac.uk for information about Locksbrook and Sion Hill, or call Corsham Court on 01225 876 390.
  • If you would like to hire spaces within the University for other types of events (weddings, functions or meetings), please contact Bath Spa Venues.

Alternatively, if you would like to arrange a more comprehensive visit or reunion event, the External Affairs Unit is more than happy to help you. To speak to a member of the team about arranging a reunion, or if you have any other questions, please email alumni@bathspa.ac.uk.

Tickets at Bath Spa Live

Enjoy wonderful events for free. All Bath Spa alumni are eligible for free tickets to attend Bath Spa Live events for the academic year 2022/23 (some events may not be included). From poetry readings to performances, from exhibitions to recitals there is something for everyone. Book your tickets via the Bath Spa Live website.

Alumni to Alumni Benefits

If you own a company or are a freelancer, and you are willing to offer fellow alums a discounted rate on your products or services, we can promote this to the wider alumni community through social media, or in our e-news.

Unfortunately, we currently don’t accept offers from non-alumni organisations. However, alums who are working for a company that is willing to offer discounts to Bath Spa alumni will be considered.

This is a great opportunity to promote your company and expand your networks. If you are interested, let us know at alumni@bathspa.ac.uk. Have a look at the Alumni-Discount-Offer-Policy for further information.

Student Union membership

Stay involved with the Student Union through associate membership. For £25 per annum, the membership allows you to join the SU clubs and societies, use the facilities and get tickets to events where there are no entry restrictions.
