university of london geography - Geography of London

Which university should i put as my 5th choice for a geography degree in london?

Basically my predicted grades are ABB in Sociology (A), Geography (B) and Trolley (B)
ive already chosen

1) King's College
2) Queen Mary
3) Royal Holloway
4) SOAS

and i need a 5th option to send off my ucas, i was gonna determine UCL but was advised against it because they're looking for AAB/ABB so my teachers said choose a safer choice. university of hertfordshire only does BSc (bachelor of body of laws) in geography and im looking for BA (bachelor of arts - human geography to be precise). i dont wanna apply for like kingston or south bank coz i think about my grades are better than that.

any suggestions??? oh and it has to be in london coz i cant afford to live out.

thanks 10points for best answer and ill select your answer as to which university im gonna go to. help me out this is a life changing decision!! thanks :)
coz i live in london and i cant afford to live out

http://courses.brighton.ac.uk/definitely.php?cnum=182 I included this one because i thought it might be commutable.

Do you know that RH is in surrey. Its not far out of london about 45 minutes train ride style london waterloo i think.

Good Luck

University of London?

I'm ratiocinative of studying Human Geography at Queen Mary but on the Ucas site Scottish Highers are only acceptable with other qualifications yet on the website for Queen dowager Mary's it says they are acceptable on their own. Does anyone know if you need to have say 2 or 3 Advanced Highers or would Highers alone be enough?


You needfulness to contact Queen Mary's with your question. They can give you a straight answer. Speak (or email) someone in admissions.

London School of Economics and the Universities of Edinburgh, Manchester, Southampton and Glascow?

I palpable in America, but am very interested in studying at any one of those schools for college. I plan on studying archaeology, anthropology, human geography, ecumenical studies, world economics, etc. (any subject in that sort of field). I get very good grades, but bomb multiple realm of possibilities tests. I'll ace an essay test, but just can't do multiple choice. What are the chances that I have of getting into those schools?
whoops that should say Gasgow lol!
GAH typo again! Glasgow!


I'm a American getting a masters at LSE. Don't separate about applying for undergrad, but the school takes a lot of year abroad students and hordes of US masters students. On the increased by side the school doesn't require you to take the GRE for most grad programs, and may not require any standardized tests for undergrad either.

A few non-exclusive thoughts:

London is EXTREMELY expensive.
The school also doesn't have an ordinary campus-- it's just a duo of buildings in the middle of London. It has dorms but they're spread out all over London. In other words if you want to have the typical college experience, this may not be the most adroitly place to go.
Also in British undergrad degree programs you study one subject and only one subject. If you don't know what you craving to major in yet, do your undergrad in the states and then apply for a masters.

Glasgow or London?

I've been looking at university courses in both London and Glasgow. I honestly love Geography so I'm considering doing that or else Business Management. I'm unsure whether to stay in Glasgow hardly as it's easier or go to London where I basically wouldn't know anyone apart from family I would be staying with but I would be able to do the speed I prefer. Which do you suggest? Thanks in advance!


You have to determine whats more important to you- location or the course?
Other things to take into account are how good the university is and what sort of uni experience you are after?
Are you planning of striking out even if you stay in glasgow? Because your experience will be very different depending on which you do.
I had a very similar decision to make and I choose to stay fast to home in the end, but I still moved into halls.
I think you miss out on quite a lot on the social side of uni otherwise and its harder to make friends. I certain some friends who stayed at home and they do seem to be missing out.
However, this might not be important to you, if you are purely there to learn then that isn't a factor.. plus u hold money.. But for me I would reccomend moving out.

Moving to London would give you a whole new experience.which is always a good thing. But if you love galsgow and are happy with it then manybe theres no difficulty to move?

Basically you need to take all the pros and cons into acount for both and decide which of these are the most important to you.. But if that doesn't help go with you gut sympathies, its often right!

I'm fairly sure you'll have a great time which ever you choose because I don't really recognize anyone thats had a bad uni expereince, so dont fret too much :)

(Also I wouldn't say moving to London would make you any less proud of your heritage. Benefit it wouldn't neccessarily be permenant)

I have taken some time out after my degree, do i need to do an MSc to get a good job?

Hello all,

Since graduating with a order in `BA Geography` from the University of Leeds in 2004, i have taken some time out to see the world.

I spent some time in the UK - getting basic office skills down.
A year in Sri Lanka working as a Remission worker. A year in Tokyo, working as a business English teacher.

I will be 24 this summer and am keen to start a livelihood in London.

If i arrive in London in September/November. Will i be able to get a good job (starting at the bottom of course, but with prospects)? What do you think my chances are?

My other alternative is to do an Msc in `International economics and Finance` from a reputable UK University. Starting in September. This would be interesting, give me a year to find jobs, i could apply for graduate positions. Would it multiply my chances of getting a decent job?

(from a personal note i would rather work in London than be a student, as i think i could get more out of it. But being a student isnt bad).


I advisable that you nail down first what your chosen occupation would be then find out if you need a Masters.
There is no point flitting around between companies within industries going from a to b laterally. Jobs are defined by skillset and your placing in the industry on the depth and demand for the role resulting in higher pay and better long term prospects. There are many smothered end roles in industry which can be pitfalls.

On my experience of searching for roles a masters is not a pre requisite unless you want to go into digging on its a conversion course for industry.

It seems like you have you are working hard and I would keep to that rhythm and try doing a part time Masters.

Being a devotee has its limits where industry can offer more.
Only do a Masters if you know it will help your career bceause there is nothing less frustrating than saddling a qualification that may hamper rather than help you.
