Reflection About the Research of Universities

The research I made of the two universities(University of Aberdeen and Bangor University)is helping me to see the characteristics of each university before choosing. Both have the carriers I am still deciding to study: Computer Science or Psychology. I learned how the two Universities differ in requirements, cost, time required to graduate, ranking, number of clubs and societies, etc.
Thinking about the cost, both have the same opportunity for applying for federal loans, but they differ in cost. University of Aberdeen is more expensive compared to Bangor University, which mean that after studying for Bangor University I wouldn't have a great amount of money to pay. But talking about ranking, the University of Aberdeen has a higher ranking, and the money used on study is an investment. So, studying in the University of Aberdeen would be beneficial, but there are others factor to consider than cost and ranking.
Now, what about time for graduation. The University of Aberdeen offers the Bachelor's degree in four years, while Bangor University offers it in three years. Also, Bangor University offers the Master's degree in one year. This gives me the opportunity to get a Master's degree in four years, which is the same time required to get a Bachelor's degree in the University of Aberdeen.
