It was the best university experience in the lifetime ever.

I applied for the following universities: Cardiff University – accepted Lancaster University – accepted Warwick- accepted Sussex- accepted Leicester – accepted I was not rejected from any university that I applied to I chose this college specifically because of how good their psychology programme is, the professors here, including Andy Field, Chris Bird, etc., are very well-renowned researchers and their expertise and books are being used in most of the colleges in the UK which made me believe that the university is a good place to join. I was initially going to join Warwick, considering it is a prestigious college; however, because the programmes are majorly beneficial for business students and it is not a STEM focused college, I chose to go ahead with sussex. Moreover, Brighton is a wonderful place for any incoming student, simply because it is a student city; therefore, there are so many chances to make new friends, and the city is pretty lively. College application was mostly handled by my high school; I just had to choose them and write a statement of purpose. The application was filled out by my high school with the help fo a career counsellor IELTS is required if you come from any board apart from IBDP or A- LEVELS. IBDP requirement for my programme: 38/45. not very aware of cut-offs from other exams since i did IBDP and hence did not have to go through the rest. The admission process was pretty seemless in my opinion; there were no hurdles as such since everything was pretty straightforward, and any application material can be found on their website September intake. simply applied for it because it was more accessible and common, especially taking into consideration the beginning of freshers' week, where all new students are welcomed and multiple activities are arranged, The application process took me 3 days. I chose the college, my counsellor filled out the application, and i wrote my SOP and then submitted it along with my predicted grades for the year (12th grade). Got my acceptance letter within 2 weeks...Read More

My overall experience was enriching- academically strong, with great support, diversity, and networking....Read More

Since I did not apply for taught courses, my process of applications, interviews, acceptance and rejection is very different from others. I applied to universities across the globe depending on the research project that aligns with my interests and my knowledge. I applied to DTU, Deakin, Sussex, Cranfield, Auckland uni, Oklahoma uni etc. I did not continue other interviews after I got an offer letter from Sussex, as I was happy with my supervisor and project at Sussex and didn't want to waste others' time. My research project was very interesting. It has a scope to make MRIs very accessible, and it motivated me quite a bit. My supervisor seemed like a very considerate guy who is understanding and responsive. The university administration was also considerate and communicative IELTS eligibility will usually be 6 or 6.5 depending on your course. But recent news is that there might be slightly higher requirements Getting funded admissions is not easy. The interviews are fairly challenging and technically deep. Finding the right opportunities that match with your interests is also challenging. My admission process – I saw a PhD advert for a project. Reached out to the prof. Got interviewed a few rounds – with presentation. Then there were some admin checks. Then there was the offer letter. Followed by ATAS clearance. For PhD students, the process might take about 1-2 months depending on your prof., type of funding, etc. My process is that I reach out to the prof. Professors usually take a week or two to respond depending on their availability. So, the earlier one reaches the better it is. If there is alignment in interests, then an interview will be scheduled generally. Followed by 1-2 rounds of follow-up interviews. Then, if the prof is happy with you, the prof would forward to the admin team. They would do checks and release the offer letter. For master's students, the turnaround time is usually quick. Hardly a month....Read More

Because I liked that it was in Brighton and the course was extremely interesting to me. I get to learn contemporary issues that relate to my interests as well as gain skills that employers are keen for students to have. I also heard really good things about it and upon visiting really like the atmosphere of the campus....Read More

The campus had this lively vibe, and I loved the mix of people from different backgrounds. The interdisciplinary approach to learning was refreshing—it made me see connections between subjects I never thought of before. The campus itself is gorgeous, surrounded by greenery. It's the kind of place where you can find a peaceful spot to study or just chill. The focus on research was impressive, and I got to explore topics that truly fascinated me. Of course, like any journey, there were challenges, but the overall experience was definitely worth it. Sussex has this unique blend of academic excellence and a laid-back atmosphere that makes it memorable....Read More
