I was admitted to the LSE in UK for their MSc HRO program but couldn’t enrol because of the delayed visa process this year. LSE did not defer my offer instead asked to reinstate it for next year. I applied to Cornell ILR school and received an offer within a month for Fall 2023, although I applied for Spring semester (starts in Jan 23). Between these two, I’m really concerned which to chose. I feel like LSE is more up to date with their curricula although there’s not much to learn in 1 year. Cornell has a two year program but is more concentrated in labour issues and unions etc. eventually I plan to try my chances in the us at some point of my life so Cornell will get me places probably compared to LSE. But who know, maybe with LSE I’ll land a better offer somewhere in the world haha.
I would appreciate your thoughts and opinions✌️
Thanks for this detailed info.
Indeed LSE is more diverse overall.
I’m an international student to both and received a government scholarship which will fully cover my tuition and living costs.
Both unis might be on par but don’t you think it is more real to get interviews with an Cornell degree in US rather than having LSE in your resume? I doubt that LSE is very much known in the US except knowledgeable people
