It is worth visiting both universities and noting which one you prefer. Studying at a campus university like Durham is very different studying in a city-based university.

Similarly, it will be serving for you to check out what placement opportunities are available at each university - this will serve you when it comes to applying for finance roles or graduate programmes.

Undergrad or postgrad? That makes a huge difference.

I suspect Durham places more students into the City by a large distance. Not sure how much that reflects A level grades (for CV filters) and social background.
