The city is very expensive and the weather is unpredictable.
Tips: My experience at the University of Sussex was very smooth. The people here were really welcoming, and I could have joined so many societies to socialise. Unfortunately, I couldn't due to time constraints, but multiple societies are available to students. I would definitely recommend the university. I love the course and the country as a whole. However, the sky-high cost of living and the unreliable weather can be a disadvantage.
Likes (Public transportation): The University of Sussex campus has convenient bus stops throughout, making it easy to get around campus for free. The campus is also conveniently located near the train station, and students can get reduced fares with their student ID.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The chances of securing permanent immigration are fairly high, as I've secured a placement that adds valuable experience and gives me an edge. Personally, I don't wish to settle in the UK long-term; it's not something I aspire to or see aligning with my future goals or personal preference.

BSc(Hons) in Neuroscience with Cognitive Science - Batch of 2022

Adjusting to life and study in the UK.
Tips: Moving to a new country, one definitely experiences a culture shock. One major culture shock that Indian students might experience is being polite to strangers. Using phrases like Thank you, Have a nice day, etc., and being considerate towards others are part of everyday interactions. One also needs to adjust to the climatic condition. It's also important to socialise and make new friends for a healthy mental life. Many universities offer a number of scholarships to students, hence, it's better to check the website and apply for the relevant scholarship opportunity during the application. I received a 2000 GBP scholarship, which is available to all the Indian students at my university. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the university, its faculty, course structure, and additional learning resources. I loved the work culture in the UK. However, getting used to the weather of the UK can be a bit difficult, as there are hardly any sunny days in the UK.
Likes (Indian Food): There are a lot of good Indian Restaurants in Brighton, ranging from North Indian to South Indian, easy takeaways to fine dine restaurants. There are also a few Indian Grocery stores like Taj, where you can find Indian snacks and vegetables. For vegetarians, there are many options, too.
Dislikes (Value for money): Undoubtedly, the university has a big library with great resources as well as top-quality research equipment. However, there were far too many teacher strikes in 2021, which had an impact on our lectures, practical sessions, etc. I found this unfair for the international students. It is important to note, however, that these strikes were happening in many universities across England.

MSc in Data Science (with an industrial placement year) - Batch of 2023

Not worth the money. The faculty doesn't teach much.
Tips: I got a scholarship of around 3000. The job market is tough, and if you have experience, that would be a plus point. In my situation, I don't have experience, so I have a lot of struggles. It is not worth it to spend 18 lakhs, and the faculty doesn't teach much. They just get the PowerPoint presentation and display it, and they read the presentation from the screen. But there are many resources on campus where I spend a lot of time reading. I am not satisfied with this university.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is very good because there are two major universities in Brighton and Inor university where there are many facilities like a library, canteen, and so on, where we can spend lots of time and people come from different cultures and regions. We get to know about lots of different cultures, which is a great experience.

University of Sussex has great student life and the university hosts many fun events.
Tips: Students should not convert things to INR and then purchase them. Your necessities are important, so go according to that. Build connections and get jobs as it's easier that way. Scholarships are hard to get, but you need to have a good genuine reason for it. You need vitamins during the winter because of the early sunset. Try not to fall sick. Doctor appointments are not easy. Finally, other cultural changes can be learned as you experience them. Overall, I am quite satisfied with my experiences here.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I like living in the UK, but I don't think I would want to move here permanently. The economy is not doing well, and things are getting more expensive every year. On the other hand, if you can get a job here, the options for settlement are good, and life after retirement is good because of the many benefits for old people.
Dislikes (Internships): Internships and jobs can be hard to come by when you're on a student visa. However, if you're dedicated and focused, you can find a decent job. London is close to Brighton, so it's worth travelling there to look for opportunities. There are also some opportunities in Brighton itself. If you want a job, you'll need to build connections, and sometimes a PSW can help with that as well.

Great college not so great placement prospects.
Tips: The university is great and supportive. The education is outstanding. The people are amazing. But the country is not great. The weather is terrible and everything is very expensive. Only if this college was in some other country it would have been 100/100 recommend
Likes (Quality of faculty): The teachers are super friendly. They are industry professionals with insane amounts of knowledge and insights. They make extra efforts to deliver the best quality of education. They take feedback very seriously, make sure to improve on the feedback received and are extremely helpful.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): The job market is not great in the UK and it is really difficult to find a job and no active placement cells are present in the university. The average package directly is also just not enough. Relevant jobs are also not available. Please be ready to struggle to find a job.

Lovely weather and a great place to study and enjoy.
Tips: There are tons of scholarships available for Indian students to attend the University of Sussex, so everyone should apply and think of them as discounts. The climate here is amazing, especially compared to other parts of the UK. I’m really pleased with this school.
Likes (Value for money): Sussex has one of the highest QS rankings in the UK and offers the lowest tuition costs. The location in Sussex has a great climate and lots of beaches, too. It has plenty of internships and other work experience opportunities as well.
Dislikes (Internships): They are quite helpful, but internship opportunities are tough to find in the UK at the moment. As a result, you'll have to spend a lot of time applying to hundreds of places. In fact, competition for internships has increased considerably over the years. Still, the internships are relevant to my field of study.
