“Students are more industrious, drink less, and are much more focused on their careers. Campus is so much busier with so many more students than 40 years ago.”
From hosting Malaysian food parties to speaking at United Nations Youth Forums, our current graduands and past graduates have told us their Sussex stories. Read some of our favourites and add your own story below.

“Sussex gave me a home away from home and when I leave after my graduation, I will leave a part of me here.”

“Meeting people from across the world, where we started as strangers and left as family. Sussex has truly been one of my most challenging yet happiest experiences.”
