Which is better York or UCL?

Got offers for philosophy at both these universities and I don't know enough about them to know the pros and cons of both and make my decision. York would be more affordable for me and has a campus, however I love London and UCL is a top university. Also is the year abroad in the degree worth taking?

Hey! I also have a UCL offer for Philosophy. I don't know much about York although I have heard it's a good uni. As for the cost, I am commuting because the price of staying is too expensive.

This list of modules has really helped me as I'm choosing between UCL and KCL: BA Modules | UCL Philosophy - UCL – University College London. Idk if you've looked at it already but there is so much to choose from in terms of studying. York may also have a page similar.
