Accommodation

Many students coming to Central Sussex College from abroad like to stay with a host family initially. This provides a secure home environment and the opportunity to practise your English.

The cost depends on the size of the room and the number of meals:

Self-catering costs approximately £85 per week
(accommodation only - bedroom and shared bathroom & kitchen)
Full-board costs £115 per week
(bed, breakfast and evening meals included, and at weekends a snack will also be provided at lunchtime.)

We have an accommodation service which can help place you with a family either on a self-catering or full-board basis. Some students choose to remain with a host family, others move on to share flats or houses with other students.
