Campus could be improved and modernised. Great support system.
It’s a nice friendly environment everyone is welcoming. It can be improved with better facilities with more facilities I feel like the university can go up a level
Nice campus and everyone is friendly - students and staff included. Campus pharmacy is long winded in getting stuff done
Good library and student centre, great online support and resources. Could do with some courts for casual sports that you can just turn up too and play.
The campus carries a wonderful atmosphere and the greenery is beautiful. I also think there is a lot of student support however the one time I could fault this was when I requested help to find accommodation for final year as due to circumstances I took a year out and the following year I did a study abroad meaning everyone in my cohort had graduated plus I wasn’t in the country to find accommodation and despite this and emailing about this they couldn’t provide any help for me such as living on campus despite me having and informing them I have medical conditions therefore this made it rather stressful during my time abroad whereas I feel like the university could have done more as I know many people who stayed living on campus after first year
I would say the amount of student support and facilities makes it such a good place to study. Everyone here is very welcoming and kind and it’s so easy to connect and talk to others. People are always willing to help and that definitely eases stress, especially as im a first year. Student life in Brighton in general is also great, from night life and things to do in the day such as visiting the pier.
Campus is very big but everything is close, every building is suitable for a good studying experience
I’ve had such an enjoyable experience, this university is truly what you make it, the lecturers will help you if you need it and will help you to reach your full potential. Being in Brighton is the most exciting experience and you will never get bored with nights out and day out options. People are generally so nice and very accepting especially if your LGBTQ!
Beautiful campus and great teaching facilities
I’ve been studying at the University of Sussex for only one term, yet I already feel very comfortable and content here. Brighton is a fun and colourful place with a great nightlife for students. The campus is very modern, clean and green. I think on-campus support here is prioritised extensively, which I highly appreciate.

The location is amazing! Need more well-being and mental health support

Support for students with disabilities and mental health is great. As long as you reach out for help
great location, good size lectures
the feel of the university is really nice, haven’t had that much student support. The student life is really fun and i like the university bars.
I don’t like how I don’t get to know my attendance without asking my personal tutor but overall the course itself is very good and effective.

Best - the place, people and environment Worst - little bit on the pricier side
More care with students

There aren’t a lot of events to get to know each other
The professors aren’t able to explain international students perfectly.
Cleaning is rather perfect. Receiving packages also is very systematic.
