Help - I can't choose between 2 offers for Social Work
I need some advice on choosing between offers at ARU Chelmsford and UCS.
ARU is considerably closer (15-20 min drive) and has a good reputation for the academic side of the course.
UCS while over an hour away (in good traffic!) is moving up the rankings for student satisfaction and has a good reputation for support on placements and in general.
I have friends at both and they both sing the praises of their course.
It's a big decision so I don't want to take it lightly. Has anyone been in a similar position? I don't know how to choose!

Forget the reputations for a moment and the influence of friends. When you went on the open days and the interviews, which campus environment made you feel more relaxed, the one you felt this would be a great place to be for the next 3 years? Also, all universities have a slight different emphasis on particular areas of social work, whether it's community, mental health, social policy, etc.... so which course interested you most?
