【UK Architecture】 (newcastle, nottingham, sheffield)

Received conditional offers from Newcastle, Nottingham, and Sheffield. They all required 555 but Newcastle also mentioned that there should be no subjects less than 3. Does this mean that they count LS and Chinese as well? :(
Which two should I choose and how's their reputation, school life, dormitory etc.? Please share any opinion and experiences! Many Thanks!

I have heard from a lot of friends that Nottingham has very poor accommodation. If Newcastle particularly says "there should not be any subjects lower than 3", that would mean Chinese and LS as well.

As for Newcastle and Sheffield, they are more or less the same. Are you afraid of cold? Newcastle is definitely a lot colder than Sheffield, but Newcastle is a nicer city.

Although you should not solely rely on league table to pick your university, the following ranking tables do have some reference.

I would choose Sheffield as firm choose as it has better reputation in Architecture out of those 3 universities. And Newcastle has specially requested "no subjects below 3", would rather take Nottingham as insurence instead.
