Advice needed for university choices

So I am currently in the process of choosing my firm and insurance choices for university. The universities and courses I have applied for are the following:

- ACM (Guildford) - Music Production
- Goldsmiths - EMCT
- Birmingham City - Music Technology
- Winchester - Music and Sound Production
- dBs Institute (Bristol) - MPSE

So far my top 3 choices have come to Birmingham City, Winchester, or dBs Institute. I am looking to go to a taster day at Winchester this month and Birmingham City in April.

I am interested in a career as a music producer, mixing engineer, or in places such as music production for film, tv and video games. I was wondering if anyone knows which university and course would guide me closest towards either of those directions and what opportunities are offered or what connections do each university have to the area of the industry I am interested in going into.

Another issue I currently have is accommodation. dBs in Bristol doesn’t have its own accommodation however there is plenty of private accommodation around Bristol (which I won’t be able to afford as they are around £300 p/w for a whole year). My own option is going into shared housing and chat to students on the discord server they offer however my dad is strongly against me going into shared housing and would prefer me to go into halls.

Any advice would be appreciated. My dad has become extremely involved in my university steps and despite me explaining to him that it stresses me out he is still asking me the same questions I’m not sure how to answer or pressuring me to make a decision soon. My top choice last summer was originally going to be Winchester (my heart was set to it in the past) however after my dad gave me all these options it’s been very difficult. He has even said comments such as “do you only like this university because it’s closest to your boyfriend” and I have to explain to him that I picked a certain university before I even started talking to him.

Anyways thank you
