What's included

You may have to pay additional costs during your studies. The cost of optional activities is not included in your tuition fee and you will need to meet this cost in addition to your fees.

  • DBS checks, where required, are included in the fees.

Mckenzie Howell

"The University of Brighton is an amazing place to study with a chilled environment.

"I’m in my third year and the highlight for me so far has been seeing my results. Feeling that your hard work has paid off.

"It’s challenging but worth it and everyone is in the same boat. My advice is to jump straight in and give it all a go – it’s a big jump from college but not too much to handle. And no question is a silly question!

"There is loads to do in Eastbourne and never a dull moment. It’s definitely somewhere I’d like to live in the future."
