bayes business school w prior exp

Hey guys, just need advice on how recruitment will look for 2024-25 intake in the UK at Bayes Business School.

Profile: -non eu -Prior IB experience in asia (intern) and UK (FT, MM); total exp incl. internship comes down to around 1.8 yrs -semi target UK school for BSc

I know i’ll be up against EU students with tons of experience but Bayes’ reputation and ranking seems decent w Corp Fin specialisation course, which seems unique compared to some other unis.

Bayes financially and location wise think is the best offer I have, curious if I still have a good chance into IB, don’t mind B4 M&A either.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Currently studying at Bayes haven’t got many interviews in IB but have 1 offer on the buyside & 1 at a mid sized renewables company in private credit and corp dev - my situation is unique though but generally it’s seen as ok allbeit not really competitive with the likes of LSE/Oxbridge etc.

First-year here. Got to the last round for many springs (Ultimately my fault for blowing it and I didn't really bother applying to many), and ended up with 1 good spring and a summer at a distressed fund. Will reapply for springs this coming year as I'm going to do a year abroad. Feel free to pm me, Can guide you. Personally, I don't think the name has held me back, I've ultimately got far enough in processes that it had more to do with my performance than school name. I'm an undergrad though, I have no clue what it holds at the grad level

 

Currently studying their too at the PG level could I PM you would be curious to hear about your experience?
