Remembering Sussex Past Review
By Nicole L (BUSINESS, MANAGEMENT, MARKETING, AND RELATED SUPPORT SERVICES., University of California - Riverside) for
University of Sussex: Brighton - International Summer School
It was worthwhile. I got to meet a lot of new, lasting friends, explore a lot of places, and learn about a new country that I've never been too. It was definitely an experience that will be with me forever.
