This is actually kind of funny. I would say go where it's more passionate for you, not where more status is.

I made this mistake. I was going to go to UTS and do computer science. I loved programming as a hobby since a teenager, and I loved the "highrise" skyscraper campus of UTS. But I also applied to Sydney for Science, when I got accepted into both, I think I chose the "prestige" and "classic campus" of Sydney, over doing what was really passionate for me.

I wouldn't say that much that I regret it, I make the most of it, you know? But I know that had I got to study what and where I wanted just for me, my path would have been a lot more direct (as I ended up going into CS later anyway, but without the degree for it).

Sydney was good, and I enjoyed it and got a lot out of it, but it wasn't really "me" as much as the other place was. I do regret it a bit actually. The people I would have met there (and ended up meeting some later through friends), the different life I would have had a focus on. I think I would have enjoyed it, actually, it was for me. I think I should have chosen the other one :)
