"Better" in what sense? What are you looking for in a university or a business degree?

Well I didn’t get an offer from Strathclyde which I knew is very well known for Its good Business school, so now I am deciding between Stirling and Dundee, Dundee appeals to me because it is international business but I’m not sure which uni is more know for Business. I also know Dundee is having money issue so this may affect me if I choose Dundee. I don’t know a lot about Stirling, I do like the campus but not sure if I would get bored there.

In terms of how well known either is for business, I'm not sure there a lot to choose between them. So if you were hoping for a key differentiator here, I fear you'll be disappointed. :smile:

Have you visited both on open days?

Any opinion on whether Dundee is a risk with the financial difficulties?

Yes I have visited both open days, and both unis appealed to me in different ways. I think I will attend both offer holder days and get more of an insight into each course and this will hopefully help me decide! Thanks for your help.

Nope. I don't know enough about their particular financial position to comment.

I think that's a great plan. :smile:
