Bocconi Law vs ESADE BBA for breaking into IB

The title, I believe, is self-explanatory. The reason I am not choosing a more relevant program at Bocconi is that my stats are not adequate to get into those programs.

Bocconi Law is 3 years long, and it already has an established community of students from my home country. ESADE is 4 years long, and few people from my home country go there, which results in a lack of information on topics such as visa and makes me worry about potential obstacles I might face along the way. Also, Bocconi gives need-based aid without any merit consideration. Meanwhile, ESADE does consider merit, and my extracurricular profile might not suit their fancy.

Assuming I get the financial aid I need from ESADE, which program would be wiser to choose? What do WSO forum users think about the potential career outcomes of Bocconi’s Law program? Thanks in advance.

That is what I am wondering. People who I asked from the law program at Bocconi said that the brand name is enough.

 

Thank you for your response but the reason I opened this discussion is that I don't know. The people I asked said the brand name Bocconi opens lots of doors. No need to be aggressive.
