Durham or St Andrews?

I have offers from both universities for English Lit, and I have no idea which to choose - any advice or insight would be appreciated!

(I found a thread from a few years ago where this question turned into a train wreck of people pitting St Andrews and Durham against London unis, so please keep things respectful haha)

I’m in the same position trying to decide between these two uni’s for English lit. I went to an open day last year and visited two departments, English and philosophy. It was very interesting and both the lecturers were so lovely. I had even stayed in contact with the English professor regarding our conversation and our discussion on essays. I’ve not visited Durham but want to go to their offer holder day. A couple of things that are enticing about Durham for me is that it is far closer to me and the course is 3 years instead of 4. However, the 4 year course at St A’s is good as the first two years don’t count towards your final grades and you get to study more than one subject. Especially when English is so multidisciplinary, it makes sense and allows for more freedom for other academic interests. Safe to say, I’m stuck aha
