Ucl vs leeds pls help

Okay so I got an offer for both Leeds and Ucl for politics and ir.
But I am so conflicted on which to firm. I currently live in Leeds so I will be saving A LOT and I will get the chance to save but UCL is so clearly better especially for future opportunities. I really dont know if I want to financially burden myself and my parents and also move all the way to London. Can students from either course please give me their honest opinion and experience it would really help a lot. PLS

Your future prospects will not be affected by going to Leeds.
I can move this thread to the UCL section or to the Leeds section for you, so you can hopefully get more responses. Which would you prefer?

literally in the exact same position rn I’m so conflicted😭😭
not giving prescriptive advice
simply suggesting go where you can work best and thrive, be that in London or be it close to the support of family and existing friends, as there are opportunities galore if you excel in either university
