Cardiff, Sheffield or Liverpool?! HELP

Unfortunately I missed my offer to study physics at UCL this morning. But to my joy and surprise, I've been offered physics places through clearing to Cardiff, Sheffield and Liverpool. I don't know much about any of these universities, I just applied in blind hope and panic because I knew that they had good reputations.

PLEASE can somebody give me some information about these universities to help me make the choice!

THANK YOU!

And congrats to everybody who is pleased with how today went!

Have they all given you offers for integrated masters?

Thank you for the advice! The offers they've given me are for BSc but for Cardiff it would also have a year of professional placement which sounds good. I have a feeling that I might be able to upgrade to an MSci once I get to the uni, as most places I went to on open days gave this option - I'm looking into that currently!

I have been to Sheffield as a postgrad - it is a very popular uni with students and I think accommodation might be available. It is a high ranked Russell group uni too.

Friends have been to Cardiff and they loved it. Really great city - it is a capital city don't forget.

If you go to either of these two unis your money will go much further than in London.

I actually think that the night life can be better in the more compact cities too.

I don't know anything about Liverpool but I am sure you will also find lots of fans.

Good luck with your choice - you have got some good offers there.

I remember when I didn't get the results I wanted and ended up in Newcastle instead of Manchester - I thought it was the end of the world. I ended up loving Newcastle it was a brilliant uni to go to. I have stuck onmy career path, done a masters at Birmingham and now I am doing a phd. Funny how bad days can turn good

Sounds like me, I've been looking at Cardiff and Sheffield as well! I want to do journalism or just an english course. I've had a look at both and I think Cardiff suits my better and is also a Russell Group uni so that stood out for me! What did you decide in the end??
