MSc Management Cass vs Warwick vs UCL vs Imperial - and Why?

Hi,

I have been made an offer for the Cass MSc Management and Warwick MSc Management for Business Excellence program. After reading the previous posts online, I am of the opinion that Warwick is better than Cass, based on reputation, job opportunities, and school community/student community.

I am also awaiting a decision from Imperial (had my interview 11 days ago) and UCL, for their MSc Management programs. I feel confident that they will accept me. However, CASS needs a response within 8 days and in this time, I might not get a reponse from UCL and Imperial. The tuiton costs are fairly similar for all four alternatives. CASS granted me a academic scholarship of 2000 GBP.

I would be very glad if you could share your views and help me make a list from 1-4 (one is the best alternative), and why.

PS: I am from Norway, and my primary interest is in business development jobs. I am aspiring to get an internship in the UK during or after graduation within retail, operations, consulting, marketing or strategy.

Kind regards, Hans-Magnus A. O.

Warwick is probably marginally better than Cass in term of jobs people go into. If your profile is fairly strong i would wait out for Imperial management as it places very well.
