Greenwich vs Kingston for computer science? in 2023

I checked course module and the area.
Although I live near greenwich subject wise kingston has better ranking.

The guardian ranking.
Kingston>41
Greenwich>84

Also Sutton trust SUCCESS RATE is nearly same for both:
Kingston> 32.1
Greenwich>31.7

But kingston takes around 1.5h to commute for me.
Is it worth it choosing kingston over greenwich? in terms of employability/career

Thanks in advance!!

I am adding the links so you can check:

I think you should go for the shorter commute so that you can use the extra 3hrs you would gain to get a better quality pass on your degree. The quality of pass and the work experience you can gain are more important than the difference in the ranking here. I don't know about Kingston but greenwich has great student feedback.

Thanks totallyfine
Greenwich offered me "Math + Comp. Sci" which is 50% math 50% CS split. Combined course gives more options but this is not accredited by British computer society because of the math.

Whereas kingston offered me "Comp. Sci with AI" which is running 1st time in the uni.(should i avoid? Why?) Accredited by BCS.

Checked both course modules.

Anyone doing Mathematics and computer science course at Greenwich? Love to here their feedback.
