Go to college house, trust me, I'm so glad I did, and ALL the people I knew who were at Uni Halls would have prefered CH in the end. Yes, most of the people there are from a wealthy background, but you wont be talking politics anyway, if you're at uni hall, it would make no difference because in my experience Uni Hall is treated as a place to eat and sleep, you don't make many friends there, CH is a community.
Chapel is about 4 times a year, and it's a TRADITION, so get over it.
Look, for your own good you have to go to CH! If you want to really be immersed in the Uni lifestyle and have crazy amounts of fun it's the only way to go, the food is better, the staff is better, there are no stupid 2nd years on power trips inforcing idiotic rules, and the people are great. By the end of two months you will know everyone's name and be friends with 99%.
The traditions are a pain in the ass, eg, wearing stupid bloody academic gowns to dinner some nights, but that's what makes the place special, it has CHARACTER. I put my own personal guarantee that you will be glad you didn't go anywhere else within 1 month, hell, 2 weeks of getting there.
PS If you didn't go to chapel, it wouldn't kick up any sort of stink, but you'd probably get shamblesed. (I'll leave you to find out what that is)
