Transformative

The University of Sussex was the perfect study abroad program for someone looking for a less traditional route. As a visiting student I was fully immersed onto campus surrounded by full-time students from around the world. The university's close proximity to Brighton, South Downs National Park and the AmEx stadium ensured there was never a dull moment. The simple train ride to London also adds great value to this program.

An experience the most cherished

I will cherish my experience of studying abroad for the rest of my life. I have made great friends, lived in England for three months, tried living on a uni campus for the first time (at Charles University, we do not have a campus or a student-shared space in this way). I fell in love with England, truly, and it’s people. I would also like to commend the University of Sussex for the excelent level of teaching standards, student support and overall care. I would definitely recommend studying abroad there to other students as well.

Wouldn’t trade it for the world!

My semester abroad at Sussex was better than I ever could have imagined. I became so close with other students who were studying abroad and am still in touch with them. I only wish I could’ve gotten closer to the non-international students! My schedule and the location allowed me to travel to 8 different countries while I was there. I appreciated being on such a diverse campus.
