UCL or Warwick for Economics?
Hi all, this is my first time posting here. I am blessed to have received offers for BSc Economics from both UCL and Warwick. In terms of career, I want to go into investment banking and eventually private equity or a hedge fund (not sure on which I prefer yet).
For context, I live about 1 hour from London and 2 and a half hours from Warwick. Would UCL be a better choice for a future career opportunities due to it being in London? I have heard that for investment banking there isn’t that much difference but that Warwick is a more close-knit community.
Thank you!
They are practically interchangeable 4th/5th for Economics behind Oxbridge and LSE. Maybe UCL edges it, but its marginal. Choose based on other factors such as social life, expenses, location. Both universities have amazing finance societies and always have lots of people placing into the top BBs and EBs.
Do you want to live in halls in London? Or are you willing to commute in from home. Do you care about social life in Coventry vs London? Important questions....
Agree, can't go wrong with either.
I appreciate your insight, i’m going to go with UCL :)
I go to LSE, pick UCL. The only downside of being in London (cost is not as crazy as you think within student bubbles) is the lack of a student 'community'. UCL has this because of it's massive student body, and solid campus grounds (and an amazing SU from what I've heard).
UCL seems like the only full package university outside of Oxbridge (and you get to be in London :) ).
Not that Warwick isn't great, but UCL is just better imo.
Warwick biz sch is quite similar to LSE apart from the fact that it's located in conventry
