History and Politics of the Americas or Politics and International Affairs at KCL

2

Hey guys, I’m kind of torn between choosing to study History and Politics of the Americas at UCL or Politics and International Affairs at KCL. Both are really good Universities, with UCL being ranked higher, but the course is very niche. I personally love American Politics and am wanting to move there perhaps to continue my studies for Masters but at the same time I feel deeply rooted to Politics and International Relations as it is more secure in the job market sector as it is more broad and if I end up staying in the UK I feel my UCL degree would not be very useful compared to my KCL degree, what should I do? This is for undergraduate btw

Hi, what are ur stats if u don’t mind me asking? Also this depends on the career you want. For finance, consultancy, law ect UCL is target whereas KCL is semi target.

Hi, my stats are A-Level Grades BBB (achieved- I’m already a student studying English Literature at the University of Warwick), GCSE: 887777666655, Distinction in English Spoken Endorsement. I already received an unconditional offer from University College London (UCL) for History and Politics of the Americas (non-contextual offer, I got accepted with BBB), I’m guessing my Personal Statement and my Application must’ve been really good to carry my offer. I am wanting to do a career in Law (I’ll be doing a GDL), mainly either Criminal or Co-operate or International Diplomacy. I’m waiting to hear back from King’s College London (KCL) though

Thanks, appreciate that :smile:
