Sussex, United Kingdom

At the University of Sussex Reed students can study in any of the 10 schools offering coursework in the humanities, social sciences and sciences. Covering a vast spectrum of disciplines, the courses offered at US allow students the flexibility to specifically tailor their learning experience. Courses are generally small, relying heavily on student discussion and participation. Sussex's excellent academic reputation, its emphasis on small group teaching and its location on the coast in Brighton within a short distance by train to London has brought students and scholars from 114 different countries.

Some campus amenities include a dentist, a health center and pharmacy, a student union, and multiple fitness and sports centers. Over 165 student clubs, societies, and sports teams are available to all students, and provide valuable social networks for international newcomers. Numerous large-scale social events and spectacles are organized throughout each semester as well, in order to give students a break from their studies.

Financial, Immigration

Cost to attend:

Reed College charges the same tuition fees for a semester or year off-campus as for a semester or year spent on campus, plus the program's actual room and board fees. Reed College encourages students to choose programs based on their academic rather than financial needs to reflect Reed's belief that all students, regardless of financial circumstances, should have the opportunity to study abroad.

Financial aid continues for eligible students during the off-campus program. Students should discuss with the Financial Aid Office how other outside aid may impact their existing aid package. Check out more details directly on the Reed College Financial Aid page.

Visa Deadlines and Requirements:

The UK's Immigration Advice Service can help students figure out how to obtain the student visa that is appropriate for them.
