Kent or Brunel?

I am choosing what to firm and I can't decide.

My top two choices are Kent and Brunel:
Kent - Multimedia Technology & Design
Brunel - Digital Design


I visited both universities and what I found out is:

Both have identical courses;
Both offer 1 year placement;
Both have 24 hour accessible computer studios;
Both located in small towns;
Both have good sport facilities;
Both have wide selection of accommodation halls.


What are the pros and cons that I should know?


P.S. Nightlife is not important to me.
where do you live/how far is the uni from home?
Kent = boring.
Brunel = a little more livelier, still not as lively as northern unis, - perfect balance.

Kent = accommodation MAY be far. (i lived 10mins away from main campus)
Brunel = accommodation on main campus (great for waddles to lectures at 9am)

Kent = weird people
Brunel = normal people

Kent = **** you over and try and take as much money from you as they can
Brunel = may do that too (no idea haven't been yet)

Kent = in the middle of nowhere with **** signal.
Brunel = in London... about 20/30min train to central

Kent = expensive, probably same as London prices
Brunel = in London, so quite expensive (not as expensive as central london, but still expensive) but London loans are higher so works out cheaper.

May be a little biased as I HATED Kent, but yeah all I said was true tbh
