Student life
A vibrant seaside city famous for its sense of inclusivity – there can be few better places to be a student than Brighton. Dynamic and cosmopolitan, it’s a place where you can express yourself and be who you want to be, all just a few minutes from our beautiful green campus.
Famous for its beach, nightlife, music scene, shopping, festivals, bars and restaurants, Brighton has something for everyone.
Brighton is located on England’s South Coast in the county of East Sussex. It’s only an hour away from Central London by train and 30 minutes from London Gatwick, one of the UK's major international airports.
Our single-site campus is in the heart of the South Downs National Park, and has everything you’ll need, from accommodation to shops, a post office, doctors, gym, bars and restaurants.
“During my time at the Business School, I cherished the abundance of diverse opportunities, from the language café where we explore different languages, to hiking with the camping group in the beautiful South Downs. I’d advise international students joining Sussex to make as much use of the opportunities on offer”
- Yiwen Wang, MSc Strategic Marketing
