Chances for Msc Finance in LSE/Cass/Warwick from a small school in New York?

Guys so I was wondering whether I have any chances of getting into any of these universities given that I went to a relatively small school in the USA. While it is known in the US I doubt it is known outside. My plans were to goto UK initially but due to costs and the scholarship I was given I chose this school instead.

As I said UK is still where I want to be and would like to do my postgraduate from one of these schools. I would like to know whether if it affects my admission chances if I come from a small school from another country?(Btw I am not an American student, I am from India).

Also if not would I be better off applying to European Universities like HEC/SSE/St. Gallen/etc? And are these schools target schools for finance jobs in London or UK as a whole? Or even New York(although I imagine New York will be tougher with an european degree)

In my first two years I have averaged a 3.7/4 GPA and I am currently doing a double major in Economics and Finance. I have yet to take the GMAT.

 

Well your chances for getting into Cass are naturally going to be very different from your chances of getting into LSE. For LSE you need really strong academic credentials. Get that GPA as close as possible to 4.0 as they don't settle for much less. Also, a 700-ish GMAT is needed and at least some relevant internship experience as well. For Cass I can't comment much other than that it should definitely be easier to get into than LSE. Warwick would be somewhere in between.

Maximum effort.
