Probably not, I prefer Lancaster and they gave me an offer too so that'll probably be my firm.

I'd like to know this about the physics with foundation year as well, although I've still not got an offer.

EDIT: just looked at the website and it doesn't say Crawley like Computer Science does so I'm guessing on campus?

Thank you so much. I will just email them to confirm this. I would prefer to learn at the university itself rather that at a college

Hi, so my two favourite unis are Durham and Sussex and I have offers from them both (both AAB).
I like Sussex because its near London (where I live) and because I like Brighton. Also I like that it is a campus and I love Brighthelme accommodation at Sussex because of the balconies!!
But then the course for Anthropology looks really good at Durham plus I would be catered and so wouldn't have to spend loads of time frapping around trying to learn how to cook!
A factor which goes against Durham is that it is quite sporty unlike me.
Then I'm worried incase I don't meet the grades but think Sussex would be way more flexible then Durham!
What do u guys think? What would you do if you were in my shoes?? :smile:

I think I met you at the open day last saturday?! :smile:

Obviously I can't really give you an opinion since I adored Sussex haha, but I'm so scared I'm not gonna make the grades either - hoping they might be nice and let me in anyway! :redface:

I wouldn't be too worried about the self-catered thing if that's major for you, you're gonna have to cook in the second year anyway so i guess it's good to learn in your first :tongue:

Brighthelm did look good though - the rooms were so big and they have a bath :biggrin:

I've firmed Sussex for Geography, so if you end uo choosing them we'll be in the same department! :smile:

That's a big dilemma. The bottom line is, they both have solid reputations as universities, however Durham is more prestigious overall which might help your employment a bit.
In terms of location/social aspect Sussex will be far better; the city is really vibrant and the nightlife is great. Durham as a town is far more traditional so there probably wont be as much to do. It really depends on what your priorities are - prestige or location and social life :smile:

Also i am DESPERATE to get into Brighthelm, the Kitchens looked so nice!

I'll give you one empowering sentence - A consistently ranked top 20 university that balances high academic standards with an excellent rural location, close proximity to one of the best student cities in the country, and a great overall balance between social life and studying :smile:

There's also a moat (ha)
