PCDA.. which uni?

Hello all, I’m starting my training in May with the PCDA route. I assume the training will take place in Hendon, but the university part is starting to scare me. On the website, it states that the learning will take place at Brunel University, the University of West London, or Anglia Ruskin University.

How do they decide which one I will be attending? They all seem far for me, but the West London one would be more doable. When will I find out this information?

It used to be vaguely tied into which BOCU you were going to (unfortunately nothing to do with where you live), but recently that's all out the window and you just get sent where the course spaces are. It may well be that not all the venues are running courses. If they are - it is remotely possible that you might be able to do a swap with someone else who wants to - but there's no guarantee of that.
