Have been given two offers (Cambridge and Imperial, I am so so so grateful somebody wants me), one of which, Imperial, includes something called the President Undergraduate Scholarship. The scholarship money is not much (£1000 per year, when fees for internationals are upwards of £40k per year) but the prestige that comes with it is significant. The catch is simply that I can only accept the scholarship if I place Imperial as my firm and essentially reject Cambridge. The conditional offer from Cambridge is quite hard to achieve (42 points, 776HL) and knowing the unpredictability of the IB it's quite hard for me to predict or even successfully work towards achieving that offer. There are also other factors (location in London, research opportunities, intercalation options, PBL) that I want to consider but was wondering if anyone had any thoughts/advice on the matter.
