Music in University

I want to study music in the future at Uni. I'm into composing music (any kind) and singing. I don't know which Uni I should consider applying to, and I don't know about the coursework at Universities. I want to apply for Berklee in Boston, but are there any Universities based in the UK that might suit someone like me? Even though I'm finishing my GCSEs soon, I feel like I have to start thinking about that shortly afterwards, or maybe not? Please can someone help me?

I went on their website, and they don’t have the coursework that I want to do… which is Music

Probably like Royal Academy of Music smth like that, but however I feel like it’s mainly for performance such as classical and stuff like that. I do play classical pieces on my instruments but like for future, I don’t think I would want to do something like that since I’m more into music production.
Production? If you're talking about sound engineering and music production, then check out the Tonmeister at the University of Surrey:

Something less academic, more creative? Look at Leeds:

Songwriting? Maybe LIPA:

Want to focus on developing as an artist? Check out Trinity Laban:

Those are just four off the top of my head. In short; there are loads of options. You need to work out your strengths and exactly what you want to do - it will narrow down your best options.
