Essec vs ESCP bachelors
Need help in deciding which offer to accept, either ESSEC BBA or ESCP Bachelor in Management. My career goals are Banking/IB/PE/VC, finance. Would pursue a masters degree after or MBA, in both Europe or US. My main concern is which is better to go to, in order to get into a top Masters program after and eventually land a good job. Also don’t speak French, would that be an issue at ESSEC?
Don't go to any if you don't speak French... I recommend LSE, Warwick, Bocconi, RSM or HSG. Should you only have the choice between both then ESSEC because they have been running their undergrad for a way longer amount of time but regardless you should know that France works with prepa + master (the culture of bachelor is not well seen). Good luck!
Thanks for your response. Unfortunately those are my only two options. Perhaps I could transfer from ESSEC to another university because of its reputation? Like my first year could count as foundation and then I can start at LSE?
Try it LSE would be much better than both ;)
Program wise, doesn't matter between the two. They'll open you up to great masters programs after.
I imagine you are targeting London since you don't speak French? Escp is better for internships then since they have a campus there. For finance escp is better at the moment, for consulting and luxe I'd say essec.
Yes, I am targeting London, but I start there and my second year is Madrid, third is Turin in order to get a major in corporate finance/banking. Is that a good plan?
I'd recommend doing London last. That way you can stack up spring internships in first few years and have a good shot at summer
Start or end in London, it is harder to end in London though because they only accept the top 10% or so. I personally didn't go to London (did Paris Turin Berlin) but am anyways targeting NYC so it doesn't matter. Going back to your question, I would recommend ESCP (yes I am biased bc I went there) - the ranking has been extremely good the past few years, always top 5 Financial Times, and long term ESCP's will be more well known
