Dilemma about Uni Halls but in home town -

[Spoilt4choice]

Ds has offers from 5 Unis, 2 in London plus Leeds, Sheffield and Manchester. We live in Manchester . He loves Manchester. He likes the course at Manchester. If he opts for Manchester he will get a place in Uni halls. His dilemma is that if he chooses Manchester he won't get the same experience of getting away from home as he would if he chose London/ Sheffield/Leeds .even though he wont be living at home, home will only be a short tram ride away so he says it's not the same. And all his friends will be leaving Manchester and moving away so home won't be the same either ! He's going round and round in circles and I don't know what to suggest!

Thanks for all your comments. He's given it a lot of thought and spoken to one of his trusted teachers today- Manchester's out of the running, and London is now number one ! We're all happy he's made his decision- it's a weight off and he can focus on his work now
