King's Bsc Management vs Warwick Bsc International Management

Hello, I have offers from all five of my applications.

Management; King's College London, ESCP and City, University of London
and
International Management; Bath and Warwick.

It is very tricky to make my choices, so any advice is helpful.

I am leaning towards, KCL and ESCP for my two choices.

Sure, three years of tourism! But what sort of job can you aspire to at the end of that?

Most jobs like the international aspect and it is ranked quite highly for its bachelors degree, and its masters are even better.

ESCP is a Masters degree school and that is where its value lies.

It’s BA is only getting better and better year on year. Not to mention the course is better in my opinion to that of Kings or Warwick

This really isn't true. French BBAs (undergraduate business degrees) aren't properly accredited and are cash cows for the Masters programmes.

I don’t understand this so I thank you for helping me but what about this: AACSB, EQUIS, EFMD MBA, EFMD EMBA, plus 6 national recognitions

The information you need to judge the quality of the education is the progression information, not the stuff that the school shouts about in its marketing comms.

Where do you find the progression information. If I do find it surely it will all be through their masters programme?

Why would you want to do a French (EU) degree if you aren't French or from the European Union?

That’s like saying why would you want an American degree, or a degree from St. Gallen. So many people in schools like LSE and King’s are international, why would they not want a domestic degree?

It's very unwise to undertake a degree without thinking through its ability to help you enter the labour market. Europeans who do undergraduate degrees in the US often have a very tough time after graduation - their degrees are very expensive but do not give them automatic labour access rights and they return to Europe and have to undertake further Masters degrees in their country of origin or another country where they have work rights. Ditto St Gallen.

LSE was an international university brand decades ago and in any case the UK allows good labour market entrance rights to graduates from its universities. King's is much dodgier IMO.

What results did you apply with and when did you receive your offer for KCL? Thanks
