LSE vs Tulane
Hello everyone,
So I got into LSE undergrad for BSc Financial Mathematics and Statistics, where I have to pay 100k Pounds + Cost of living
I also got into Tulane on a full tuition scholarship where my total cost of attendance would be only the living expenses
I got into University of Richmond for Business + Mathematical Economics, and Fordham for Mathematics and Economcis too with both on full tuition scholarships, but I do not think they're at the same level is tulane.
I want to work in the country where I go to uni as I'm an international, and I heard that people aren't really getting jobs from LSE if they're international.
Am I crazy for considering tulane over it for both jobs and for money saving?
no go to tulane. 100K in debt is shit and won't allow you to pick your career :)
Agreed, also Tulane is a solid school and lots of kids are able to place well.
What is Tulane ? Never heard of it (and I work in London so that says something..)
Also how are you calculating the LSE COL? Realistically it should cost you 45-60k depending on nationality ? Then COL is the same with Tulane.
if you want to break into high finance, would definitely go to LSE, no questions.
You can pay back your student debt in 2-3 years if you want to (or longer if you want to invest - what I did).
On the other hand if you go to Tulane you may not even have a shot at IB.
You need to consider your whole career not just the first 2-3 years.
Btw as silly as it is when recruiting at the Associate level people still look at your school. Think about that.
LSE = top in the uk
Tulane = haven’t heard of (I guess based on the above comments it might be top20 in the uk?)
hey, tulane is actually a school in the US, in new orleans (ranked around T50), as are the other 2 uni's mentioned
Based on the LSE data, my fees are 34k/year and 17k/year for COL which is total 51k pounds/year, so I would be at 150k roughly over 3 years.
Tulane is 20k/year for COL (68k/year tuition waived), so I would be at 80k USD over 4 years
do you think the roughly 80k GBP difference is worth it for LSE? i am not taking debt whatsovevr as parents paying
Well if you go to the US schools, can you actually reliably get into BBs / EBs? Coz that’s what LSE will give you.
Also do you want to work in the US or London ? that’s a question to pounder. Are you American or British ?
If your parents are fully paying for education then assume you’re pretty loaded and they can afford it so would definitely go to the LSE.
