Treforest is home for the University of South Wales meaning for 9 months of the year it’s also home to 23,500 students of the university, as well as a number of students who study in Cardiff and choose to commute. Sport is a huge focus for the university, with them recently developing a state of the art sports park, with one of the only indoor 3g football pitches in the UK.

These facilities are used by Cardiff City FC and Wales Women's National Football team. There is also an outside 3G pitch and many outdoor grass pitches for a variety of sports. The university also offers many other courses including chiropractic education, social sciences and law to name a few. Notably, Leanne Wood who was leader of welsh party Plaid Cymru studied at the University of South Wales.

Property in Treforest reflects the student population, with a high quantity of student lets and a competitive property market.

A room in a shared house will typically put a student back roughly £280 a month meaning its one of the cheaper places in the UK to study.
