An autumn semester at University of Sussex

I think it's probably always a good idea to go abroad to study at a different university if one has the opportunity. You learn not only from academic courses but from the whole experience in general, the many meetings, chance to discover new interests and see new places. I would highly recommend spending time at University of Sussex. It's a big university with high quality education and many different opportunities to choose from study wise and a variety of student organisations and unions, groups where you can pursue almost any hobby there is. The support system for international students is excellent, the university is beautifully located among green hills called the Downs, and Brighton, the city nearby is a wonderful place to live. People are friendly and very welcoming, and the city ful of nice pubs, cafes, quirky shops and a wonderful beach by the sea.
