University choice

Hi, I’m currently trying to choose which university to go to. I wish to study creative writing but I’m struggling to narrow down which universities to apply to. I’d rather it be close to Kent if possible but I understand that might not be an option
Canterbury Christ Church?

Just be aware that a degree in Creative Writing is not going to land you a publishing deal, and there is no job or career that requires 'a degree in Creative Writing'. If you can find an English degree that includes some writing units etc, that might be more useful long term.
