Anon,
That's long journey! I know people who commute to university and this year has been a real stress with all the strikes and cancelled trains. If you experience any delays or problems with a 2hr and 30 minute commute (one way), it's going to affect you a lot!
University timetables generally mean that you may not be in every day and you may not have a 9am start, but if you do, then you may find yourself exhausted before you even arrive and if you have late lecture, you may find yourself not getting home until late. This may become a nuisance if you want to go to the library, have to do group work or just want to spend time on campus with friends.
Are there other options available to you? Is there a more direct commute?
All the best,
