lse econ or ucl econ

I have got an offer from lse but it is not a pure econ offer and ive got an offer from UCL which is a pure econ offer
was wondering what I should choose, which university based on future employability would be better and how far behind is the other one?

in exact same boat here! idk what to do either - what joint course is urs?

Depends on what exactly you want to do. But generally I gather that the degree itself is close to irrelevant if you're interested in getting into general finance jobs like banking. In that case, the brand name of LSE would be superior.

is this in terms of international rep too? and is there a major difference in the perceived prestige of the 2 unis? thanks.

Must confess I'm no expert. LSE is more prestigious, especially within financial circles. No question about that. But certainly not by much. Like I said depends on what you want to do. Both great choices. I think if your plan is to get a career in the city in finance, LSE is a somewhat clear choice.

economics and economic history what about you?

Depends. Obv dont do a course that you wont enjoy, but if you like both the courses in terms of employer reputation for economics there are few/no places that will trump LSE. If you want to go into IB/finance the LSE brand name for any course, but especially if you do something economics themed like you are, is unmatched.

Congrats, on both! I would also say to consider the quality of student experience. I go to UCL, and my LSE friends felt they had a much worse quality of life, due to the competitive, not fun, environment LSE perpetuates, compared to UCL. LSE is defo very prestigious for finance, although UCL would also get you where you want to go. Best of luck!
