I really love this University and enjoy my course a lot. All of the staff are so supportive and the student life is great, especially in comparison to my old university (I transferred this year). Everyone has a place here and it’s very diverse and accepting. I also love being right near to the city - though if I could change anything about the uni it would just be if it was a city campus!
It is very welcoming and lovely. A bit far out of the city but it's nice if you enjoy that kind of thing and it's still got super easy links to the city. A bit on the high side of things so look into it financially before you come. But it's a great uni :)

First gen student
Support services wellbeing wise and careers wise
Campus is confusing to navigate, the lectures and interesting and the teachers are helpful and good.
best is student life, worst is location
Haven’t been here long but it’s been pretty good so far. Wish there was less party things but they have made everyone feel included.
More transparency on where our fees are going would be great
I love the environment here and everyone here is so supportive and nice
The best place about sussex is the campus and surrounding areas. Stamner park is so beautiful! And Brighton is such a lively place. The only thing id improve is the prices! The coop and eat central is expensive.. but I love the savers meal!!
I really like the location as it's nestled in the south downs but buses to campus are quite hectic sometimes
Every thing is nice
Could do with higher numbers of mature students
Lots of support, beautiful campus. Seminars could be improved.
best- meeting my friends, being closer to nature, learning new things, friendly people
