Northumbria vs Nottingham Trent vs Swansea?

I've been accepted to all three, but I have no idea how to narrow it down. This is what I know:

Northumbria - Great night life in Newcastle, lots of gigs and wide variety of clubs, shops and restaurants; however across all the university review websites I've looked at it ranks just average. (e.g. ranking about 55th out of 120 on most factors, like Student Union and quality of lectures).

Nottingham Trent - Great night life and accessibility to the city as the first year campus is located in the city centre. Ranked pretty high on social factors, for example I remember reading that they recently were awarded best Student Union in the country or something. However, people frequently say the wifi and accomodation is ****, especially in second year+, and I've heard complaints about lecture quality and laziness/lack of qualifications of professors.

Swansea - Right on the beach of Southern Wales, great for Summer, especially surfing and BBQs. First year accomodation is right next to the Business building as well (I'll be studying Business Management), although the campus is slightly flat and plain looking). But the city is usually described as more of a town, without much atmosphere and a definite lack of chain stores (like Size? or Urban Outfitters or whatever) and music gigs.

If you have any extra info or can correct any of this, please do. Really need your help.

Hi are you aware of the whole Business clinic Northumbria Uni has and the relevant clients? Just google it! The Business school and the Business clinic of Northumbria is of award-winning class. I haven’t studied business at Northumbria but when I was studying there we all were aware of the “Business” department of Northumbria. I don’t know about the other unis. In general all are good! But I would advise you especially in Business to look for the links with the industry every institution holds. Enjoy your degree whichever uni you choose. At the end of the day you are the one who makes the difference! Best of luck!

Perhaps I can give you more accurate information about Swansea. It is a cross between a small city or a big town. In terms of shopping it has most national stores except the upmarket ones like John Lewis or House of Fraser. You will find Debenhams, M&S, Boots, WH Smith, Zara, Next, River Island, H&M, Top Shop, New Look, Animal, Superdry, Evans, Primark, Waterstones, Wilco and HMV amongst others. Mumbles 5 miles away has lots of boutiques. There is a large indoor market and Tesco and Sainsbury's are on easy bus routes to both campuses.

As for nightlife there is a street with about 20 bars known as Wind Street, a casino, 3 cinemas, 3 theatres, numerous restaurants a bowling alley and a leisure centre.

if you are looking at national bands or upmarket shops Cardiff has these about 50 miles away.

Your best option would be to visit yourself and come to your own conclusion.
