Big open campus with a lot of facilities making being there very convenient to study in. Library especially is an excellent study area that I prefer even above my own accommodation.
The campus is very social and there are many events that are interesting - the one thing i would improve which is the bus services as someone who lives off campus the 23 bus isn’t the most reliable
I love the markets in the sussex square
The accommodation is very expensive.
Great food but expensive
I really like how safe it is and how much support the uni gives in regards to personal life and higher education
Great opportunities to meet plenty of people, however more silent study places would be really helpful.
The location of Sussex is truly the best. The security and comfort of a campus, surrounded by the natural beauty of the downs and stanmer park, while only being a short train or bus from the vibrant city of Brighton is so great. the city is bursting with personality, from a unique nightlife to an array of independent businesses and places to visit. It truly is the best city to be a student. The university itself strives to create a supportive environment for its students through a variety of ways. The campus has a variety of useful facilities and resources for both studies and personal passion. The only possible improvements I can think of would be to do with specific methods of teaching used by a few lecturers, but there are no huge overarching problems I have come across.
Best aspects: Brighton is a fantastic city and the student body is very accepting Worst aspects: the module work is extremely unbalanaced and difficult
Great course, love the teachers and support!
Fantastic international development department
