Which university is best for introverts?

Are there any universities that are perhaps quieter and have more low-key environments?

Which universities should I avoid?
Open university. Can do it from the luxury of your bedroom👍🏼

Sounds great - but I still want the university experience and I wonder that perhaps spending the next few years of my life inside may not be great for my mental health or developing my life skills ... idk I think I need something that will force me to socialise but also isn't too overwhelming
Aberdeen uni, my uni because its quiet and it's not that big of a city compared to other cities.

Wish I lived in Scotland - I live in the south west near Bristol and I would prefer to be close to home

Any university will force you to socialise , you could pick any and make it less overwhelming by picking a private accommodation or one that’s slightly away from the uni, then you can take a step back and remove yourself when you need to whilst still getting the shared social experience (you can even decide to only share with 3 other people)

Go research about your local universities. Perhaps going to the open days would help. Aberdeen is a few hours away from where I used to live. I visited four Uni's open days and thought this one had the best atmosphere.
