University City is a railway station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, along the SEPTA Main Line. The station serves the area around the University of Pennsylvania, and is located at South Street & Convention Avenue. It serves the R1, R2, and R3 Regional Rail Lines.

The station is less than a block from the University of Pennsylvania's Franklin Field and the Palestra. It made a brief appearance in the movie "Unbreakable" as Elijah falls down the stairs to the platform. It is portrayed as a subway station with turnstiles in the movie, even though it is really a regional rail station and conductors collect fares at the station.
