Middlesex or UEL

ive received unconditional offers from Middlesex to study Popular Music, and Music Production and Culture at UEL. Im struggling to make a decision and any advice would be much appreciated.

I had a friend at UEL doing that. He dropped out. It was a shockingly bad university. Equipment wasn't all that either.

Your courses are 2 completely different courses - pick the one that has the best modules?

oh thanks for the information, i think im leaning more towards Middlesex to be honest. Its just that the Middlesex course doesn't seem to have any tech/production modules, which i'd like to have some experience in, just to broaden my opportunities after i graduate. I also have an unconditional to study Music Technology (Specialist) at the Uni Of West London, but thats focused completely on Technology and Production, which isn't what im really looking for. I have an unconditional for London South Bank too, but im not really considering that, due to the bad reputation etc.

Once again, any help would be much appreciated.

UEL is actually a very good university in my experience. But you should choose the university that has the most interesting and relevant course for yourself :smile:

Middlesex is a much better university than UEL, based on the experiences of those I know who have gone to them (I'm not at either).

thanks for the advice everyone, i think im going to be going with Middlesex. Although, the course at UEL is going to be taught in a new campus in Stratford, which is a combination of UEL and Birbeck. Do you think there's any chance this would make any difference to the course? Location is quite an important factor to me too, and Middlesex seems a bit like its out in the middle of nowhere.

No, if anything it will be a greater benefit to you, as the new building by UEL in Stratford is going to be world class. It's also in the centre of Stratford and directly next to Westfield Stratford city and Stratford train station which makes it a great location.
