Which university should I choose?

Results day is on the 13th August. I currently have an offer from UCL for Statistics, Economics, and Finance. Requirement: A* in Mathematics. I don’t think I got that most likely A or B. Insurance is Durham for Finance and the offer is BBB. I think Durham is a semi target even though it’s a top 6 university and higher than UCL.

I’ve been scrolling through clearing for and found a course at UCL and saw a management course available, will it be looked down upon? It looks like a Mickey Mouse course and I think it’s brand new. Is it worth it for the University name or will I regret it?
