Choosing a uni

Hello
I currently have offers (computer science) from:

Bath
York
Surrey
Bristol
Falmouth

Im really stuck on picking a firm. I would appreciate some advice if you have gone to any of these unis. Ideally more based on the course, teaching etc
Comp sci student here, Bath then Bristol are probably your best two options there in my opinion

Hey, I'm doing CS at Bristol in my final year. Bath and Bristol have the best facilities and research IMO. This massively affects teaching quality but most of all, quantity of choice. Do you have any particular field of interest?

Hi, my interests are in robotics/ai. However, I did a CS programme at Bristol for 6 weeks and didn’t really enjoy the city. So I think it’s of the list for me at the moment.

Definitely have a look at Bath then, they have great AI researchers and facilities. 🙂 Sorry to hear you didn't like the city.

Hi,

I would advise you to go to the offer holder days to see if you like the town and the "vibe" of the uni. Have you looked at course content as well? Which one aligns best with what you want to do in the future?
Hi @bjhbjh0
It's great to hear you're considering studying at York.
If you have any questions about the course or what's it's like to study here we'd be happy to answer them 🙂
