Hi, I’m third year at sussex uni.
I don’t study neuroscience but I can say a lot about the campus and area.
Honestly with the campus living it depends where you are put and who with and I know that’s the same experience across all universities with dorms in the first year then after you can choose who you house share with.
Some people have loved their campus mates and some people don’t get along and are too loud it’s pot luck but if you do have too much trouble I know a couple people did move and the campus supported them to do so.
It’s in falmer so a bit out of brighton so the campus is usually quiet at night, I’ve been in the library over night studying and walked out to silence.
The campus has a co-op on site, buses you can easily get to shops or the train, if you drive plenty of space to take a car and drive to get to big asda down the road or other places.
I would say for a university it’s good it’s all on one campus where as other universities have blocks spread across a city so it is a bit quieter and away from the main city so not really much trouble or noise at all.
