Everything on your doorstep
The best thing about life on campus is that everything is close by. The restaurants, shops and sports facilities are just a short walk away from the ISC and your accommodation.
Places to eat
All University-managed flats and houses have self-catering facilities, so cooking your own meals is easy and fun. However, if you don't want to cook you can find plenty of places to eat, at reasonable prices. Self-service restaurants offer everything from coffee to a three-course meal. The school cafés are also a good place for lunch and are popular with students and staff.
Campus shops

Leisure time on campus

Whatever your interest, it is a great opportunity to try something new. There are a number of bars and cafés on campus where you can catch up with new friends.
Campus events
The Students' Union runs several major events throughout the academic year.

Campus and beyond
If you want to take a short break from your studies, the campus offers areas of peace and tranquillity. The University is situated in the South Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are acres of rolling green parkland to which you can escape. If you want a change of scene, you're minutes away from Brighton – the UK’s most exciting seaside city – and just an hour from central London.
