Your day will begin at 10am, but we’ll be welcoming visitors for registration from 9am onwards. You can then explore Sussex until 3.30pm, when the day ends.
Bringing parents or guests
You’re welcome to bring a guest with you. We’ll even be holding some specific information sessions for them too.
Have lunch on us
We’ll provide you and your guests with a £5 lunch voucher each to redeem towards food and drinks in our campus cafes and restaurants on the day. There’s lots of choice: from sandwiches and hot meals to sweet treats and barista-quality hot drinks.
Not every cafe will be open, but you can see the food and drink on offer for students at Sussex.
