Hey,
I'm going to be superficial here. I don't know much about these programs, or the difference from one another, although I have heard of the school names. However, if I were an employer, I'd look up FT. Aston is the best one out of them (Glasglow isn't even ranked). Its rank is the highest and has a 96% placement success. I also personally know somebody from Aston who has a great career as MD of a very reputable recruitment firm. You can check the stats out yourself: rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/bradford-sc….

This is probably all you need at this stage since you were happy to go to all schools anyway right?

You've asked a very difficult question my friend. What is "good college"? Do you mean brand? Because honestly, they're all the same, esp when you go abroad. You go abroad, the only MBA program people will recognize are Oxford, Cambridge and LBS (I apologize for being politically incorrect).

The one you should opt for, if you ask me, is the one that has the best relationship with the companies in the field in which you want to work. Check out the employment report for each individual school. I don't know what your post MBA goals are.

But you've answered the question yourself. You want to go to Lancaster. Then wait another year and apply, unless you've got other reasons for having to start an MBA this year. Most people will only get one MBA degree, so if you're going to make that investment, it's better be the program that you want to get into. Don't let anybody in this forum decide for you.
