Help me choose a college

I would like:

- Accomodation to be onsite or near central site for 3 years.
- At medium to high proportion of state to private school students.
- A college with 2 or more English fellows.

It would be nice to have:
- A college with at least an average number of students per year.
- A college with open green spaces.

Colleges that I don't want to apply to for sure are
Brasenose
Christchurch
St, Anne's
St. Catherine's
Magdalene
Lady Margaret Hall
Keble
Lincoln
New
WOOSTA! (Worcester) Stunning green spaces and *I think* accomodation on site

I'm hugely biased but do have a look at Somerville - we're building 68 extra student rooms in a corner of the main college site that will be in use by the beginning of 2019/20, which means anyone applying in the coming cycle or later can expect to live in College throughout their degree. We have three English tutors, a middling sized intake (~125 new undergraduates a year), a higher proportion of state school students than the university average (not that that makes much of a difference - it's more important that the population is full of friendly, normal people, wherever they come from, and Somervillians fit that bill perfectly), and substantial green spaces.
