Is LSE really worth it for me?
Hi all, EU kid here.
I was recently admitted to the MSc in Accounting and Finance at LSE, and even though it was one of my top choices, I’ve been having some second thoughts lately.
I’m a fairly risk-tolerant person and I’m absolutely willing to invest in my education, although 43,000 pounds (about half of which would be in debt) is a significant burden for me.
My main concern is the job prospects for this type of MSc: considering that I currently only have an internship in accounting and another at an M&A boutique, I’d like someone with more experience than me to clarify whether my background gives me any chance of getting into IB in London (or in the EU in general), or if I should just give up and save the money.
Thank you in advance.
Worth it for EEA lang speakers.
In terms of consideration for IB there's oxbridge, lse, Imperial undergrads at the top.
Then there msc finance grads from these schools along with EU targets (HEC, Bocconi, Escp etc.)
And then there's non target programs at these top schools like accounting and finance which can be good if already have solid internships on your CV and just need the UK grad visa to pivot markets.
Curious on this as well, what is the general sentiment about LSE A&F? Are you looked down upon within finance if you've opted for A&F instead of their classic finance masters?
Usually you don't opt for it, its a backup for those who didn't get the Msc Finance
