Brighton

There's so much to do and it's all pretty close by. being able to escape to the South downs and go walking or cycle to the beach is great. Public transport and living costs are pretty high but there's a lot you can do for free if you have a bike so it balances out.

Night life is really good but price of living cost is high, for houses that are not even worth the price they come at. Shopping is good however always busy! Lots of things to do in Brighton

Great for shopping as there is a big shopping centre on Churchill square plus tones of places to eat; being well know places or quirky little cafes. Lots of clubs to go to like pryzm, shoosh, haunt and many more. There is easy transport from the uni to the town centre as the bus stop straight outside the uni goes directly to the pier and Churchill square.

Brighton is a really cool place to live. Filled with all the shops (the laines), bars, pubs and loads of really tasty independent restaurants. Oh and it's right by the beach!

There are endless opportunities to eat out and go for drinks but the vast majority are pretty pricey, the beach is one in a million

Amazing seaside to visit, lots of nightclubs and things to do. Some things can be a bit pricey but its hard to get bored in a city with so many festivals and events like Pride and Brighton Fringe!

Great nightlife - coalition, concorde 2, sticky mike's frog bar and white rabbit regulars. Highly recommend Preston park/the rock gardens for when your skint! Vip pizza for the win!

Huge shopping centre in the centre town, beach right next door. also have a cinema, great clubs for a night out! Transport is amazing with buses working till 3:30 in the morning!

Yeah, students love nightlife, and in Brighton it is second to none. But the city goes beyond that. There are hundreds of incredible independent shops in the laines, there are coffee shops and (vegan!!) cafes everywhere, there is a beautiful seafront to watch the sunset over, and we are surrounded by the South Downs National Park. We literally have everything - why would I live anywhere else?

Brighton, one of the greatest gems of the entire United Kingdom. Many refer to the eccentric town as London by the sea and it fits perfectly. Imagine the nightlife, shopping and individuality you find in Central London, now deduct the biggots, add a great community and a beautiful scenic town with not nearly as much litteror polution and you have yourself Brighton. Transport is simple with very constant busses that go pretty much all over Brighton and if you live in the center travel can be done pretty much by foot everywhere.

Sussex university is located out of the center of Brighton, next to the football stadium. The location is great because it allows the campus to be open and spacious and everything is all in one place. While it is not in the city center, it's in the South Downs which make for beautiful scenery. Transport in and out of Brighton city center is easy there are regular buses to and from campus throughout the day and up to 4 AM.

Decent nightlife, but very expensive. The city itself is great, although there is a lack of respect towards students

Transport links are great and easy to get anywhere. Everything from shops to clubs are easy to get to.

Brighton is a lovely area with some great views and stunning locations. I study out of the calmer campus, which is right up next to the downs and so there is a great scenery to the university. Also a short bus ride into town and everything is there. Shops, restaurants, cafes and the beach front. There are so many wonderful clubs and pubs. You will never be bored on a night out

Brighton is an incredible place to live. It has a diverse and artistic nature and culture with striking views and friendly population. As a student, Brighton is great. There are lots of higher education providers and universities in the city which makes it quite a student friendly city. Finding a job in the city is a lot easier than you would think. There is a large quantities of small businesses and franchises alike making it perfect to find a job that suits you. The nightlife is also incredibly diverse. The music played in clubs differs massively. And the music scene in Brighton is large and renowned across the country.

Brighton is a wonderfully diverse and abstract city. It's full of lots of independant businesses; shops, cafés, restaurants, and bakeries. There's never a dull moment in Brighton, events and activities are on all the time. Why not go down to the pier with friends and play in the arcade, or maybe just settle with a good book and a drink on the beach. Pubs are two to every corner in the city, and there's a large strip of clubs that runs along the beachfront to choose from on Saturday night. If instead you prefer a night out to see a new movie, then there are multiple cinemas to choose from; the Odeon - a popular complex, as well as Cineworld (which is docked on the Brighton Marina), then there's the Duke of York Picturehouse, and the Duke at Komedia Picturehouse - two independent cinemas, that also contain unusual seating arrangements including balcony seats, and sofa seats. These cinemas also allow you to bring in hot food, hot drinks, and alcoholic drinks from their restaurant/bar underneath the cinema. Festivals are a must-go; Brighton hosts the notorious Great Escape Festival, which showcases famous artists, as well as hundreds of up-and-coming singers, songwriters, and musicians, all of which perform in various pubs, clubs, churches, and streets around. The North Laines holds independent cafés and handmade shops that makes your shopping day perfectly pleasing, and if those are a bit on the pricey side for you, Chruchill Square Shopping Centre is the place to go; chain clothes and shoe shops, well known restaurants, and popular brands can be found in this shopping centre. The city's bus schedule is outstanding; there are multiple routes that cover almost all the streets in Brighton, Hove, and the surrounding area. Certain bus routes are as regular as every 2-5 mins, with others 10, 15, or 20 mins.

Good old Brighton. Clubs, shopping, good transport links and Brighton pier, not much else you can ask for.

Brighton is an ideal location for university. It has something for everyone. If you enjoy the countryside then you have the south downs, you have the sea right on your doorstep and if you prefer the bigger cities London is only an hour away. Plus the city of Brighton has plenty to do with lots of people choosing to stay here after uni

Great to be by the sea. Especially in the summer. Busy town vastly populated by students, but most people are still really friendly.

Good place with loads of stuff always going on with good value student night and a banging spoons. Plently of shops bar and places to eat that suits all peopled dietry needs

Nice place for students who like to go out both at night and day. There is always something to do. There also lots of shops to go and spend your student loan on. Major problem is that Brighton is so expensive when it comes to getting a takeaway.

In Brighton it's easy to get from one place to another any time of day and night thanks to the constant running of buses. The town is also open till 7pm allowing you to do some late shopping if you're in class or work all day. The nightlife is spread throughout town and the seafront and is normally open till 7am giving you a full night of partying.

It is really good value for money and it is good classes and likes the students in my classes, the lectures are really informative.

A variety of places to go on a night out, good for a wide array of music taste etc. Shopping is pretty varied too, from smaller independent shops to bigger chains. Pretty expensive but student events are common and offer value for money
