Hello,
I just recently graduated in the states with a bachelors in international business and am looking to get an MBA abroad. I would love to do it in London, but my undergraduate performance was not exactly... the best that i could have done. Can anyone recommend a school in London where I could get an MBA and have an easier time getting admitted. Thanks for any help..

make sure to have a well rounded application. I had very average undergraduate grades from USC (southern california) and I got into all 10 schools I applied to in England. Recommendations are huge. Get the highest ranking person you know (especially at work) to say something nice about you. And prepare to talk about yourself and what sets you apart in your interview. Around London, I would suggest: Lower Range - Queen Mary; Middle range - Royal Holloway, Kingston; Higher Range - Imperial, LSE; Highest Range - LBS, Cass

That's exactly where I'll be going in September for the ft MBA! It's a great school. Part of City University London, known as the best undergraduate university for business in Greater London. Graduates easily find top paying jobs anywhere in the world. Very unique in the fact that it is constantly growing and developing, despite already being one of the best schools in Europe. Ranked 38 in the world by the Economist; 41st in the world by Financial Times and 19 in the world by Her Majesty's Treasury. An MBA from Cass guarantees you permission to work in the UK as a non-citizen. Brand new building in the City of London (financial district - center of Greater London) - very high-tech - the most wired b-school in the world. Located right on the steps of the London Stock Exchange. Most professors are active in the business world. Imagine a b-school on Wall Street in NY! Similary scenario. The staff have been super helpful so far and I am really excited about going. I could go on for days, but I'm sure that gives you a good idea...
