Edinburgh, Nottingham or Manchester?


olivia154

Hello everyone!


I got offers from Edinburgh,Nottingham and Manchester for an LLM in European Law and I'm completely unable to decide! Edinburgh seems to have the best reputation but I find the courses offered at Nottingham and Manchester much more interesting! I might be wrong though since it is hard to tell from a course description on the internet whether a course is going to be interesting or not... Can anyone give me any advice on this? I've literally only got a few days left to decide!
I'd be really really grateful for any comments...

Of course you have to weigh all the factors and decide for yourself, but faced with the same choice (and not to disparage either Nottingham or Manchester, of which I know comparatively less), I would attend Edinburgh because it really has a great reputation where I am from. Your decision will depend on so many factors such as the school's reputation where you are planning to seek employment, the actual programme the school offers in your subject of interest, the cost of attendance, and the quality of academics whose courses you may attend or whom you might work with on a thesis.

I would say go to Edinburgh, although it's a shame that the particular courses being offered don't sound as interesting. But maybe you could do your thesis on one of those other subjects, and/or focus on overlapping issues into the courses you do take. I'd put Nottingham second.
