I made the best friends

July 21, 2026by: Rachel Winfrey - United States

The University of Sussex gave me the opportunity to make great friends through an abroad meet-and-greet at the beginning. Through the class set up it was easy to travel and still make good grades. I felt like it was very lax and allowed me to immerse myself in exploring. The housing setup was a bit rough for me since my roomates were disgusting and made shared spaces difficult to go into. Brighton is a quick train ride away and a great city.

Studying, Exploring, and Growing at Sussex

Coming to Sussex was not only academically enriching, but it also gave me the opportunity to meet students from all over the world as well as local British students. The University of Sussex and the city of Brighton offer so many exciting activities and things to do, making it easy to get involved and make the most of your time here! I would highly recommend joining a society. Whether it's the Walking Society, where you can explore the beautiful South Downs and enjoy the stunning natural surroundings, or Pilates to unwind and stay active, there is something for everyone. In addition, I really enjoyed the content of my modules. The lecturers were fantastic, and the seminars were engaging! Overall, my time at Sussex has been an incredibly rewarding academic and personal experience!
