Do you speak German? If not, go Bocconi - if you do it's closer (but I'd still do Bocconi)

Better City, CoL probably same (not sure though) and St Gallen is known to be a sausage-party (which even if you're a girl might not be what you're searching)

So - go Bocconi.

 

You're probably 17/18, right? If you're interested in that kind of stuff go do a gap year in Australia before going to Bocconi then. As a german especially you would be far more "special" coming from Bocconi than from StG where 90% are German males (exaggerated obviously). But that's just for lifestyle/uniqueness reasons - if you go to StG you get a great degree as well that's for sure.

So you’re saying that my future career chances are about the same with both universities?

 

Thank you very much, you were very helpful. So I will go to StG for my Bachelor, but I even think I will do my Masters somewhere else. Thank you both very much again.
