Residential Services

On-campus residences

The campus is well served by restaurants, banks, shops and bars and is a lively place during term time. Each residence offers a unique living experience , ranging from smaller budget housing to en-suite bedrooms and stuidos in the more recently constructed residences. All rooms on campus have broadband and there are 24-hour computing facilities available in York House.  You can find out more about each specific residence by clicking on the link to the left hand side of this page.

You can take an on-line tour of the on-campus residences and an on-line video tour of our housing.

Cars, parking and travel information
Students living on campus are not permitted to park a car on campus (except for RAs, students who have a disability and students with families, subject to availability, fees and agreement in advance on a case-by-case basis). There are over 500 bicycle racks on campus and cycle lanes into Brighton and Lewes. There are good bus and rail links, so you may consider it better to not bring a car with you to Sussex - particularly as parking in the city can also be difficult.

Security
The university has its own Security Office based on the ground floor of York House. Security officers patrol the campus day and night. All security staff are qualified first-aiders and can respond quickly to emergencies. A part of their service is to provide escort facilities after dark if required.
