Set in acres of parkland, the campus is a community with its own bars, shops
and amenities. Most first-year undergraduates live in University-managed
housing, either on campus or in Brighton. Those on campus enjoy its friendly,
cosmopolitan atmosphere and thriving social life.
All University-managed flats and houses have self-catering facilities and can
also find plenty of places to eat on campus, at reasonable prices. Self-service
restaurants cater for a quick coffee or a three-course meal, while the bars also
serve food. The school cafés are a good place for lunch or a latte and are
popular with both students and staff.
Shopping on campus is good for basics. Bramber House has a food store,
newsagent, post office, launderette, insurance agency and bookshop. There are
also a couple of banks, with cashpoint machines. The Students’ Union runs
several shops including a grocery store, selling a range of Co-op goods, and a
convenience shop selling everything from cheap stationery and sweatshirts to
excellent bagels.
Sussex has recently been awarded Fairtrade status, which means that the
University and Students’ Union are committed to selling Fairtrade foods in
campus shops and using them in campus restaurants. Fairtrade is an independent
consumer guarantee that disadvantaged producers in the developing world are
getting a better deal.
Campus services also include a health centre, a dentist and a pharmacy. For
those in need of a retreat, the interdenominational Meeting House offers peace
and quiet, as well as the chapel and chaplaincy services. USSU runs over 115
societies and there are also 38 sports teams and clubs.
