Business School Decision Undergraduate - RSM/EDHEC BBA

Hey,
I need to make a decision - I've been assesing the pros and cons for each business school but ive had a hard time. I have both offers for RSM (Rotterdam School of Management) IBA program & EDHEC GLOBAL BBA (Edhec / Nanyang / UCLA). Wanting to pursue a career overseas, preferably in Asia, in either IB / Tech consulting, I am heavily considering EDHEC due to its international immersion but regarding prestige and rankings, EDHEC is nowhere close RSM for its undergrad courses. On another note, I feel that RSM is top-tier for consulting and that many lads go straight to LONDON. What is your take? Thanks in advance,

If you pick the EDHEC BBA you will regret for the rest of your life. You won't have access to the same masters and the same job opportunities. Plus BBA students are not well seen by GE students in France (which is sad but true tbh).

Thanks !Yep, that is totally true but this is not the basic BBA; the Global BBA is 3 years in 3 different unis + 1 year of internships (cohort of ; EDHEC/Nanyang SG & UCLA. You'll get a triple diploma @ the end of your bachelor. I am totally aware of the GE situation but this programme is kind of unique (Bocco has it with USC and HK Poly). What would you do in this case?

From UCLA you will not get a diploma from UCLA but UCLA extension studies (not even sure the name of that school). Not sure from Nanyang. The World bachelor in business at Bocconi/USC/HKUST is totally different because you actually study at all three and get a diploma from them and not extension of unis....

Yep, that is true. Tbh, ill think ill go with RSM; my biggest fear of studying in France is that the "ecole de commerce" BBA's are just of bunch of rich-kids lads partying all day. RSM is serious business, plus it sees to be growing actively each year. Thank again
