Support beyond graduation
When you graduate from the University of Brighton you will automatically become a member of the Brighton Alumni Association, a network of over 100,000 alumni around the world.
My personal tutor is my key person to succeed. Whenever I am nervous, to face my exam, she will advise me, to calm me down. And every time I feel down low, or lost confidence, she will support me. She believes in me and I am really grateful for her.
At the University of Brighton, you, and every other international student, will have a personal tutor to help you with your studies.
