University choices

I've been thinking about my uni choices. I'm an international student and I would like to study astrophysics in the UK. I would need to do a foundation year first before starting an undergraduate degree and I need a little help choosing my school choices. I just wanted to know how good these schools are for astrophysics, their overall cost of living, accommodation, student union, night life and all that. My choices are: University of York, University of Exeter, University of Bath and University of Kent

PS, Uni of Kent is currently going through 'money saving' / staff redundancies and closing certain courses - may not be the best Uni to be at in the next few years.

Uni of Bath - good International Foundation course, its a specialist Science and Engineering Uni, and the Astrophysics degrees have a valuable placement option - and Bath is a beautiful historical city - Physics with Astrophysics BSc (Hons) with professional placement or study abroad (bath.ac.uk)

None of these are big cities and none will have the kind of nightlife big cities will. York I suspect will be the most affordable. Exeter, Bath and I suspect Kent will be expensive as all are quite touristy and down south. You will probably find all will have a range of accommodation. For sciences Bath will have the best reputation but there will be very little to choose between it and Exeter and I suspect York as well. All of your choices are small historic cities with campuses outside the city
