Sheffield or Glagow
I am planning to do a MBA degree this year and have applied to the following schools.Mon Jun 08, 2009 08:30 PM 1. sheffield 2. Glasgow - Conditional offer - ielts 6.5 ( i have got 7 so will be getting the unconditional offer soon) 3. Aston - In the waiting list 4. Durham - Currently under process 5. Strathclyde - Attented the interview and waiting for the result My criteria for short listing the univs are 1. Fees - sheffield and glasgow gets high priority for this criteria 2. Part time jobs - i Know its difficult to do a part time job but am certain to take up few hours so birmingham, sheffield and glasgow get their priority 3. Accreditation - Strathclyde, Aston and Durham are triple, glagow double and sheffiel single accredited. 4.University reputation - Glagow, Sheffield are well known universities and ranked in top 10 universities in UK (overall ranking not MBA) Based on the above details i have came down to sheffield or glasgow. Any added details abt these univs or its location will certainly help me to rethink or finalize my selection. |

Actually, Glasgow is quite temperate - it rarely snowed last year, and the temperature hovers around 16 c most of the time. It rains a ton, though, and is quite windy, so if you really can't stand that kind of weather (if that's a big factor for you), then I'd choose elsewhere.
