They have a big presence at the uni and i regularly use their facilities, which are a more affordable option.

2nd year student
Brighton has a great uni life and is full of day and night time activities for students. There is a big culture of community and many venues do regular student deals. The only downside is most of these activities cost money, so they are not that accessible to students who struggle for money.

The course structure doesnu2019t suit me very well - we are more focused on learning as we go instead of b...
