Have you visited them both? If not, do so. I don't know if Manchester is running an applicant day for A&F, but if not there are non-subject specific mini open days every Weds http://www.manchester.ac.uk/undergraduate/opendays/other-visits/ and I would imagine that Brum runs something similar

Have you looked at the modules on offer at both? Which appeal to you more?

What grades are each asking for, and how likely are you to meet those offers?

Will you be eligible for a bursary? If so, how much will you get at each?

Do they both guarantee you accommodation? Manchester does, I don't know about Brum.

All factors to think about before you decide, because there's really nothing to choose from in terms of prestige or anything like that, so it really all comes down to personal preference.
See http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/firm_and_insurance_choices for gneral advice aout making this decision.

The most important point is that you don't have to make this decision for MONTHS.
Don't rush to decide. If you get it wrong, you can't change it. Those places are going nowhere, so take your time to decide. Go and visit.
