New accommodation for January 2011

December 2010: Because of the high demand of on-campus accommodation, places for students starting their programmes in January were very low so we are very pleased to announce that we have secured off-campus accommodation placements in a newly refurbished student residence in Ovingdean, less than 4 miles from the University of Sussex, and less than 5 miles from the city centre of Brighton.

The accommodation is situated in the village of Ovingdean, amongst open fields with views of the sea. The main residence block offers light and spacious rooms. There is wireless internet access throughout the accommodation block.

There will be vending machines available selling snacks and necessary items, in addition to a small shop just on the edge of the grounds selling most essential items.

There are also a limited number of shared houses available sharing 2 bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen and utility area between 6 students. The houses are cleaned on a weekly basis. These placements will be offered as self-catered only.
