I am planning to do a MBA degree this year and have applied to the following schools.
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.

Hi,
Regarding the location, Glasgow is in scotland so its too cold and most of the time its snowing. So i think its better to join sheffield.
Cheerz,
Sandy

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.

hey boy, ever been to scotland? UK rarely snows nowadays, in total about 2 weeks, i was holiday in the very top north of it 2 years ago, no snow at all during my christmas new year vacation. it was very warm instead.
