essex or stirling? (politics/international politics)

i got an unconditional offer from essex and stirling. these two uni seem to match up pretty well by the looks of thinks but honestly im not sure which to pick.
(and on a side note, if i get an offer from royal holloway, should i pick that over the preferred uni above?)

thankyou :smile:

congrats on your unconditional offers, that's fantastic! 🎉🎓

Have you visited for an open day or offer holder day yet? I found that really helped to solidify my choice was to visit the campus, as it's got to be somewhere you want to live for the next few years.

We had an offer holder day last weekend, and our next one in Colchester is the 9th March. Check out your other choices as well if you haven't already.

Essex offers a travel bursary reimbursement of up to £150 towards travel costs for you (including one guest) towards mileage, parking, train or bus fare, even flights! ✈️🚇🚌

That's quite a difference geographically. Does that impact your decision?

Essex used to have a good reputation for politics/government in Anthony King's day - is that still th case?
