Choosing the right University (Business Studies / Scotland) ;)

Hey guys, I'm a German engineering student (B.Eng in Engineering Management) and currently applying to several business schools in Scotland.
To my surprise, I quickly got some offers.

The choice is between (Master of Science in Business Administration):

- University of Glasgow
- University of Stirling
- University of Aberdeen
- University of Strathclyde

I have looked at the different rankings (Complete University Guide, THE, Guardian ..) but am confused as these vary widely.

From the "British perspective", which of the listed universities (business departments) is the most respected/ renowned?
Can I accept the offers of several universities and then decide for one?
Which ranking should I trust?
I personally tend to Stirling, how good is their reputation?

Apologies for spelling and grammar errors :smile:

Thanks in advance,
Max

Strathclyde has a fantastic reputation for business worldwide, while U of Glasgow is undoubtedly a better brand overall.

Overall, I'd be inclined to say Strathclyde.
