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

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 tutors are always available for academic support and the student support team have been getting more involved recently to alert the students of how they can access welfare services. I have personally used the welfare services to help me afford rent.

Our timetable and work load is fairly balanced so we are not constantly struggling to keep up. The tutors all provide a range of perspectives and very helpful feedback and are always available. The course structure doesnu2019t suit me very well - we are more focused on learning as we go instead of b...
