Edinburgh or Manchester for Econs

Hi! I am an international student and I've got into both the University of Manchester (BSc Econs) and the University of Edinburgh (MA Econs(Hons)). I am torn between the two schools regarding location, career prospects and the social environment.

For the location, I would most definitely prefer Edinburgh because it's quieter and smaller but for Edinburgh its also a 4 year course which means more cost $$.

As for the course, I am more likely to be inclined with the BSc in Manchester due to the fact that its more Mathematical and structured plus since its a city it attracts the bigger IB firms. At the same time for Manchester, its known to be a party city which I may not be as comfortable with.

So I am very torn between the two schools and whether I should choose prioritize the degree/duration of degree or the location/environment.

Is there anyone that could help me or give your opinions about the two schools and which one I should choose? Thank you so much for your help!!
