Unless one of them is asking you to pay a non-refundable deposit, the you can accept multiple PG offers and make a final decision when you are ready.

Loughborough is ranked a lot higher than Aston but i’m not sure on your specific subjects. No one can really give you a specific answer here because it’s all done to whatever you prefer. But if you solely care on the brand of the uni, the Loughborough

Then give us sensible information to make a judgement on, or else toss a coin!

What is your career ambition?
What are your current qualifications?
Which country do you want to work in?
How much work experience do you have?
Why is the decision urgent in November - it doesn't make sense?

If you want people to do your work for you, give them enough detail to make a decent go of it.
