Situated in and around the UK’s gay capital – though London and Manchester would dispute this! – Brighton has a huge University, spread over five campuses (including Hastings and Eastbourne, which are slightly further afield). The first of the new universities to be awarded medical school status, it also has a strong Art and Design Faculty and commits to encouraging students’ entrepreneurial flair (bring it on, Lord Sugar!). The University also boasts extensive facilities, with a fantastic Students’ Union and a £7.6 million sports centre.
