Uni of Surrey, Cardiff or Nottingham for media and communications?

Hey!
I've been offered places at University of Surrey, Cardiff University and University of Nottingham... Not too sure which one to go for... Each uni has its pros and cons. I want to know which University has the most satisfactory program which I can make the most of once I graduate

What do you want to use your degree for?

What are your other 2 choices?

Have you visited them all? Been to applicant/offer holder days?

What do you consider the pros and cons of each?

Hi!
Congratulation on your offer to study at Cardiff! Im a student here at Cardiff and love it. A few of my friends do media and communications, and they really enjoy it. I know they have opportunities to study abroad, get placements, and get involved in extra curricular / "career building" type of things, for example one of my friends is helping produce and host the uni radio station, or theres a uni newspaper, magazine and tv, which look good for future applications and help you explore various options. They have a new building in city centre next to the BBC and Media Wales, and have good study space facilities and six newsrooms. They run industry professional talks throughout the year. "91.8% of graduates were in employment and/or further study, due to start a new job or course, or doing other activities such as travelling, 15 months after the end of their course".
Hope this is helpful and let me know if you have any other questions!
