How good are “safety” schools? /u/PykeisDeadly CSCQ protests reddit

Hi all, I applied to a few universities a couple months ago. In the UK, I applied to Lancaster, Durham, Warwick, King’s, Edinburgh. And I applied to TU Delft and TU Eindhoven in the Netherlands.

Right now I got accepted conditionally into Durham and Lancaster and I got rejected from King’s.

Hypothetically if I don’t meet the conditions for my top unis, is Lancaster a good enough school to give me good job opportunities? If an employer sees on my resume “Lancaster CS bachelor” will that make my chances lower than if I had TU Delft or Edinburgh for example?

Right now the uni that interests me the most is Delft, but, although this might seem a bit childish, I noticed that there’s barely any vacation there. Only 2 weeks for Christmas and 1 week during spring (there’s also 2 months in summer but thats pretty standard).

From what I’ve heard, Delft is an extremely hard uni to study at due the high chances of failing the first year. Is going there worth the effort? Does graduating from TU Delft give good job opportunities?

Also, could someone rank the unis I listed in terms of reputation and then in terms of quality? Would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your time!
