Seems pretty straight forward to me, just go see them all and see which one you prefer. Its always useful not being a million miles away especially when you have to hawl all your crap home but I wouldnt say its a priority for making a decision.

Genuine, genuine question. Why "realli" when it's "really"? Is your spelling not the best or is there another reason? I'm not taking the piss here, I'm just curious.

Herts Uni not required an art foundation is not a good selling point, it's more likely means that they aren't very good and need to get as many bums on seats as possible in order for the course to run.

I did art / design / photography for A-Levels and can honestly say that A-levels are no equal to a good foundation course, thats why the majority of Uni's require one.
Apart from that, a foundation is cracking fun and is another year of student life to relish before you commence those 40 years of grind!
