Guys, I need your advice,
I applied to LSE for their Media and Communications course (LSE School of Media) and did not get in.
So, I got an offer from Westminster, MA Public Communication and Public Relations, and until today I was certain I'm going there.
But I've just got an e-mail from LSE, saying they had reviewed my application and want to offer me a place at MSc Social and Public Communication(Institute of Social Psychology).
Should I reconsideR? What would you do?
1) It is my impression that LSE program is not designed to provide significant practical training (smth I need), what do you think?
2) Besides, they must be really short of applicants if they found me:) although their entry rate is 27/114
3) Will a brand name such as LSE make up for a more practical degree such as Westminster?
* FYI, I do not have any experience in the field of Communications, want a new career, my BA degree is International Economics.
What exactly is it that you want to do ultimately?
Communications is much more about the individual course than the institution. I used to a journo; the institution I studied at overall was not very prestigious, but in terms of the course it was one of the top three in the country.
