I love the campus being all together and it is very green, I feel the student support could be better
18-24 years
Excellent vibes, love campus and the people Who to go to for what isnt always obvious
The lectures and seminars are well structured to allow for people with mental or physical disabilities to participate without being put on the spot. The student support is quite good as well, helping when they are needed. The student centre is a great spot for studying or relaxing, it's nice and modern.
Best location - next to countryside, near to Brighton city centre and beach Lovely, friendly place Modern campus with excellent teaching facilities
Sussex uni has a warm & friendly atmosphere and I like the convenience of the campus itself as everything is only a short walk away. The seminar tutors and lecturers encourage you to try your hardest and offer support too. I’ve only just started but I haven’t noticed anything I’d particularly like to change.
I love the feel of the campus, it’s so lovely compared to others. However, the food on campus is more on the expensive side.
It is a good place to study as there are a lot of facilities to study and sit in in each of the schools. There are multiple 24h facilities for those who prefer to work later in the evening.
Best: being in Brighton, Beautiful location and nature Worst: not enough opportunities to meet other people and make connections
friendly campus, nice atmosphere
I love studying at the University of Sussex. The campus feels like its own town but not in a suffocating way, you’re surrounded by nature so are constantly reminded of how big and open it is. Student support is excellent, the staff in all departments are very easy to communicate with and no matter what your concern is they always make you feel heard. In terms of wider location Brighton is an amazing place to live and study in. It’s full of things to do both day and night and people are generally very happy and friendly. I wouldn’t pick anywhere else if i had to reapply to university.
Beautiful setting, good facilities but just a bit far from the city centre
The campus has lots of green spaces and great study spots, also the food is great. The university could provide more funding for student events, such as student meets.
The best part of uni experience is taking part in all modules and hearing about all the different opinions that other students have to say, the worst aspect of uni would potentially be not being efficiently taught how to complete assignments; essays.
Great environment and insightfull lectures
Best would be having fun and passionate lecturers, and the worst would be how busy places around campus can get
Loads of areas to hang out but lacks events in student union. Great teaching support


Staffs are super friendly and supportive.
I really like my course. It goes into depth and it also focuses on not just marketing
For the value of money is good, but it can some times be improve.
