MBA in UK Colleges
Mon Feb 09, 2009 12:21 PM
I am from Africa and really wish to apply for a 1 year MBA programme in UK on self sponsor. The cheapest I have seen so far is London Schhol of commerce (University of Wales). Can anyone tell me the reputation of this programme in the school? Also advice me if there are cheaper accredited colleges or Universities (Especially out side London) where I take the course. Thanks

The only true way of measuring the reputation of an MBA program, is the MBA rankings. the most known ranking lists are the one from FT and the economist. a school that is not ranked would be a wast of money, unless you already have a job, and planing to keep working there, doing the MBA only to get to a better position.
I would also beware of cheap MBA programs - they are usually not ranked, and can be a wast of money.

for more over rankings and what they can tell you about a school see this:

www.find-mba.com/article/176/rankings-what-they-ca…

you can also look at the MBA Ranking page on this site to get the links to the important ranking bodies.

If you are looking for a school in the UK i would suggest to search the forum for previous posts - this is a reoccurring theme here.

Not good. LSC has a co.uk (not a ac.uk) domain that should say it all. The website looks like they are trying to sell you something. As for University of Wales: You can get a Wales degree from all kind of strange places around the world. I don't know why they act like a degree mill.

It seems like it is a common practice in the UK - it seems like a good way to make some money oversees!
