University of Sussex review by a_niero
HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because in this way I'd have the possibility to choose the people I'm going to live with.
Personal comments:
To be honest, I was disappointed because I was 23 and I was put with students of 18 (very noisy). They should pay attention to put together students of the same age! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
