Surrey or Bath for Politics
Hi! I’m struggling to pick between firming Bath and Surrey for politics.
Bath is a Russell group, top 10 for Politics, beautiful campus city.
Is the nightlife good. But super expensive from what I’ve been told
Surrey is a uni I have visited, I like the campus, the course seems great, the lecturers seem amazing too.
One lecturer told me due to the smaller cohort I’d have more access to opportunities at Surrey.
I really want to go to London to get my internship/placement and Surrey (Guildford) is a little bit more inexpensive but also a quick commute.
However I want to do what’s best for me overall, what’s the best degree I could get as Uni is so expensive I want to do it right.
Feel free to give me your opinions thanks!

I honestly would pick bath, i'm biased since i didn't pick surrey as one of my choices nor have a been there. But when i went to baths open day its very beautiful campus with great connections in the industry. Constantly ranking high in the UK university rankings even though it is not a Russel group university. If there avaliable try unibuddy, watch some day in the life and read the modules that are involved. I found them to be useful because at the end of the day the university can look nice but if it doesnt match with your learning style or there are modules you dont like then it will be a hard three years.
