Luke's the easy one - he's at Oxford. But what do we do with the others? I don't know the geography or the schools or anything, so I'm looking for ideas here.

If you want a university close to Oxford, your best bet is Oxford Brookes university which is in Oxford but is easier to get into than Oxford. If she wanted a degree that would leave her with quite a bit of spare time, her best bet would be an arts course like English, Media or perhaps History. Most middle universities like Oxford Brookes wouldn't have very long contact hours for those sort of courses. Medical and science based subjects often have long contact hours so best bet is not to choose one of those.

Rani wouldn't need to study journalism to be a journalist, experience would serve her better so maybe interning would be better? If she did want to go to university, she could either do journalism as a degree or English would probably be just as good. A London university would probably be a good bet, I think Roehampton university does a journalism degree, plus the majority of London universities will do an English degree. London would also have much better opportunities for Clyde than anywhere else in the country probably, there's also several prestigious colleges of art in London. Bear in mind as they already live in London, they probably would still be living at home using buses, trains or the tube to get to uni.

There's also a special express route by coach between London and Oxford: http://www.oxfordbus.co.uk/main.php?page_id=27. Clyde and Rani would probably use to go and see Luke if no one was driving them. Considering how expensive it is to drive in London, Clyde and Rani probably wouldn't be driving themselves.

Hope that all helps!
