Best European undergraduate program for an Italian student

Hi, I'm an Italian high school student and I was thinking of applying to a European business school for my undergraduate studies. I'd like to study abroad to experience an international environment (I already got in Bocconi, but I'm still not sure if I want to work in Italy). Currently, I'm thinking of getting into the management/consulting market. I was looking up St.Gallen, Rotterdam and Copenhagen, but I'm considering also other universities. What would you suggest me? Many thanks in advance!! :)

Italian MSc in Finance at Bocconi student here. I believe that a BSc at Bocconi (Especially if you are in english-taught ones like BIEM or BIEF where there are international students that are aware of job market) will be prestigious enough to allow you to get in whatever MSc you want and land internships, if you are good. If you want to work out of undergrad, I suggest looking into LSE, Oxbridge and such since they place better in UK where working out of undergrad is common. I also suggest these if you are not too sure you can have a really high GPA (>29/30) and also dedicate time to applications/GMAT, since Bocconi is more academic and tougher than universities abroad.

 

Thank you for your answer!! Unfortunately, it isn't possible for me to apply to these universities since I don't meet the admission requirements for grades... I would prefer something outside the UK since grades there are not as relevant in the application process as they are in the UK.
