<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Would just like to know - which one of these UK schools has a better reputation in the United States, the London School of Economics or University College London? Especially for law! Any help would be appreciated - thanks very much!</p>
<p>LSE, hands down!</p>
<p>Alhough both are roughly equal in terms of academic excellence and reputation in England, internationally, LSE is clearly more recognized.</p>
<p>what courses do you plan on taking? For example, UCL is very well known for psychology. Focus on courses/study then decide on school.</p>
<p>LSE has a much stronger reputation in the US.</p>
<p>Thanks =) Well, I've got offers from both to study law. Just wanted to know which one would be more respected in the US if I decided to apply for grad school there. Anyone actually been to UCL or LSE?</p>
<p>I agree with LSE.</p>
<p>I was given conditional offers to both and seriously considered attending. But in the end, I opted to study in the US instead. I like both schools for different reasons. For Law, if I recall, both schools were rated pretty even, with the slightl edge maybe going to UCL. However, if you are seeking a university that has international recognition, then I would say that LSE is the way to go, not so much because UCL isn't recognized (because it definitely is) but rather, because LSE's international reputation is pretty incredible.</p>
<p>I was this close to attending LSE for grad school. </p>
<p>But then I realized that the price was 23 thousand Pounds Sterling and not USD.</p>
<p>Big difference.</p>
<p>I'll pretty much be attending UCL starting this fall but to do engineering. It depends on whether you want to continue Law in the UK or not. As it's law I'm assuming you will be continuing in the UK. Then it wouldn't really matter as they are both top schools and recognised widely in the UK (obviously).</p>
