Chances for MscFinance in LSE/Cass/Warwick from a small uni in NewYork 10 Mar 2015, 12:27

Guys so I was wondering whether I have any chances of getting into any of these universities given that I went to a relatively small school in the USA. While it is known in the US I doubt it is known outside. My plans were to goto UK initially but due to costs and the scholarship I was given I chose this school instead.

As I said UK is still where I want to be and would like to do my postgraduate from one of these schools. I would like to know whether if it affects my admission chances if I come from a small school from another country?(Btw I am not an American student, I am from India).

Also if not would I be better off applying to European Universities like HEC/SSE/St. Gallen/etc? And are these schools target schools for finance jobs in London or UK as a whole?

In my first two years I have averaged a 3.7/4 GPA and I am currently doing a double major in Economics and Finance. I have yet to take the GMAT.

Have good stats and be able to sell the school in your essays and interview. Tons of schools in this country and world. Many of them are great, but people only know so many places. Just explain why you chose the school you did and what you learned. Also, the Euro schools you listed will place in London. Look at Copenhagen and Bocconi also.
