I loved the city. My schooling was satisfactory but some instructors were very lackluster. The study abroad advisors were very supportive and sweet. I made a lot of friends and spent lots of time with them during my term. My fellow students and my flatmates were very kind. I was glad to be living with such a good group of people. While there were some problems with some flatmates at certain points. My living experience was overall good and I would recommend the halls to anyone. But it is unfortunate that Falmer campus is so far from the city center.

I’ve had an amazing time here! I’ve learned so much about both myself and about life in general. Brighton is such an amazing space to explore yourself creatively and to put yourself out of your comfort zone! Would recommend everyone an experience like this. The modules I took have been a lot of fun while also challenging enough to keep it interesting. I’ve learned so much from them and the lecturers have been to great help. I’ve felt welcome here since the first day ans I would want to give an extra big thanks to the international office who have made me feel so safe through the whole thing!

I loved Brighton! It was a perfect "home base" for travelling to more countries while being in England. The classes were relatively easy and the professors were all super nice. The only thing was that a lot of students didn't go to class, so it was hard to meet people at first. Also, joining clubs especially the sports weren't as easy as I thought it would be, especially getting here halfway in the year. The housing was really nice as well, I loved having access to my own kitchen and also my own bathroom. The bus is easy to use and getting too the grocery stores isn't hard at all.

I loved my experience here at the University of Brighton. I had 3 classes and only had class Monday-Wednesday which gave me a lot of time to travel every weekend. The classes are not difficult compared to US classes and there is not much outside work especially for humanities and business classes. You can definitely find a good social scene here also, but I am not into drinking and clubbing. There are also a lot of different fitness and sports clubs which was cool and definitely more my thing. My favorite part of the program were all the different places I got to travel to. I went to 32 different countries in my 5 months here. We also get a 3 week long spring break which is awesome. Additionally, my classes have no finals so for the last 3 weeks of the program I am traveling full time. I would highly recommend if you want to experience a new country and maximize the amount of time you have to travel around Europe.

I loved going to the University of Brighton. I met amazing people and had so much fun. It was also only 30 minutes away from a major airport. So traveling was easy. London Gatwick is convenient and has some really cheap flights. I would highly recommend traveling while you're here. Plus you get a 3 week spring break so I would travel then. Academics wise I didn't enjoy myself as much. The classes were all heavily graded on the final. So if you didn't do well you could fail. Though there was no homework.

I have loved my time here, and all of my professors and the housing staff were so amazing and supportive. It was all worthwhile and truly an incredible experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first entered this program, but I have been pleasantly surprised by how everything turned out. I would definitely recommend the program I completed, and I am so grateful for the support I received throughout the entire journey. I am sad to leave, but I will forever be grateful for the time I spent here.

My time studying at the University of Brighton has been such an amazing opportunity. Thanks to USAC, the process of moving to a new country and attending a different university was extremely smooth. The onsite staff, Fran and Zoe, are the sweetest and do what they can to support each student. The city itself is so quirky, and my time here has been unforgettable. Brighton is just an hour and a half from London by train, is located on the beautiful coast, has great shopping and food--there is so much to love about it!

Living in the UK has been an amazing and memorable experience. One of the best parts was getting to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds—there’s a great mix of international students and locals, which made it easy to make friends and feel welcome. The cities are full of history, and there’s always something new to explore, whether it’s museums, cafés, or nature spots just outside town.

Academically, the teaching style focuses a lot on independence. At first it can feel challenging, but it helped me grow and become more confident. Professors were supportive and approachable when needed. The transportation system is also very convenient, making it easy to travel around the UK and even to other European countries.

My advice: stay open-minded, budget wisely because things can be a bit expensive, and take advantage of opportunities to travel and meet new people. Overall, I would absolutely recommend the experience—it’s fun, eye-opening, and something I’ll never forget.
