Hello everyone,
I could not find any info about UCL and business analytics in general in the forum. Here is my query in short, should I apply with this profile to the UCL and Bayes Business Analytics, without GMAT?
My target universities are: Imperial, LBS, UCL Marshall, WW and UCL. I haven't heard and read about UCL so I am curious about the quality of the program.
My profile:
Background nationality: Turkish 22 year old
Undergraduate: Bogazici University (top level university in Turkey, very low acceptance rate) 3.72/4.00 GPA. BA in International Business with highly successful quantitative courses like, statistics, finance, quantitative analysis etc.
References: Very good references, I am the assitant student of one of them.
Work experience: 2 summer internships in Business Development but small companies; one of them was remote in London
I would like to trust my high GPA and successful quantitative courses, and apply to some of the programs, atleast less competitive ones like UCL and Bayes, before I take the GMAT. I am taking GMAT regardless, but I think this will give me mental room to prepare for GMAT better in the end. To be honest I am little impatient and want to get it over with some of the applicaitons, considering it is getting late and late each month.
Is there a possibility, I can get admitted without GMAT to UCL and Bayes Business Analytics with this profile, or even one of the others I mentioned?
Thanks in advance! Have a nice day.

Hey keksomek, I am also aspiring MSBA at UK schools. So saying this from my personal experience.
2 things to remember while applying for UK Schools
1) none of the UK schools shows mandatory signs for GMAT/gre score except LBS and somewhat Imperial, so yes you will be okay with your UCL and UoL application.
2) Academic background matters a lot in the UK, So make sure to emphasize it in your application. One of the students got rejected because of not having 80%+ marks in her bachelor degree, so yes. Marks are important.
Hope this helps.
