As Pollycop has said - well done for getting offers for both; Westminster for anything Media, arts, journalism and film related is renowned (top in the UK for research by a massive mile) - not sure if you have seen the video on this page, but have a watch.

Not sure about LCC (part of the UAL I believe) - though why don't you have a look at both the sub forums in London uni's. I know LCC has been having some troubles with finances and cutting or slimming down many of its courses and Westminster is having some trouble with threatened job cuts (see the blog below):

However, these pressures are common now for most universities in the UK due to the current climate - but it is important to ask questions about any potential cuts as they can severely affect the quality of your education and student experience - so have a quick read and note any concerns down.

You really need to visit and ask questions and do this soon to get a feel for the environment, facilities and what they can offer you - this is so important and I think this will make things easier for you. Hope all this helps.

Good luck. :smile:

Whilst I was studying at London Film Academy they always commented on Westminster being top for media and film, that's all I know really. I'm having the same dilemma between Westminster and Bournemouth!

might be too late but..
Westminster seems really good, they're facilities are amazing and they're students always win things so i guess they're doing something right. the campus its taught at is nice as well.
