University campus tours

We are very excited to be able to invite prospective students back on campus.

If you’re thinking about applying to Brighton we can’t wait to show you around and tell you all about student life in Brighton and Eastbourne.

This is your chance to visit the campus where the course that you are interested in is based and get a feel for what it will be like to be a student here – and to hear about Brighton life from our students.

Online open days

We are also running two online open days this autumn where you'll be able to get more detailed information about your subject, learning facilities and accommodation.

What to expect on the day

You can bring one guest with you.
One of our lovely student ambassadors will lead the tour. They'll tell you about campus life as well as sharing their top tips on the best places to hang out and take a break from your studies.
The tour around campus will include sports facilities, libraries, cafes, and social and informal study spaces.
We'll try to make sure that you get to see some lecture theatres, teaching rooms and accommodation. What we are able to show you will depend on teaching timetables and the size of each group. We'll let you know on the day.
Your tour will last up to 1.5 hours, including plenty of time to ask your student ambassador questions.
