Thanks for the various suggestions. In all honesty, I did not even think of deferring, for different familiar reasons. Now that you tell me you think it would be the wisest choice, I might consider it; nevertheless, I am still (and maybe inappropriately) more inclined towards my original idea. I should have sent you a PM, CakeTea. Thank you for your willingness to share your reviews, greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the replies, and sorry for not providing enough details! Yes, I am going straight from undergraduate studies. I do not have relevant work experience in the field; in fact, I barely have any kind of work experience at all – only some summer jobs. My main area of interest is the implementation of policies within the public sector, albeit with a viewpoint inherent to market logics. I am interested in the impact of the economic approach in policy-making, which is why I decided to apply to a Political Economy Master, among the others. A postgraduate degree seems necessary to achieve a better understanding of the topic; similarly, pursuing my education in the UK appeared to me as the most culturally enriching option (otherwise said, UK universities are better than European universities, generically speaking). It is hard for me to tell what my exact goals are – I am not sure myself. Primarily, I would like to undertake a professional path that could allow me to put into practical use what I will learn. Very vague, I know. Thanks again for the interest and help!

Hi everyone. First of all, I would like to apologize if I have posted in the wrong forum, as it seems to me that the site is more US-oriented; secondly, I apologize if I have posted in the wrong sub-forum (I might have needed to post in “Decisions, decisions”, but this one appears to be more active). Finally, I apologize for my grammar! I would like to receive any kind of advice regarding which Master I should pick. I have received four offers: -KCL, Political Economy. I do not know how to feel about this one. It seems the most versatile option, but maybe it is too theoretical to offer good future professional opportunities. -UCL, Public Policy. Probably the programme I like the most. Also, the most expensive option, LSE excluded. -Warwick, Public Policy. I consider this a less expensive UCL. What scares me is the possibility that it would not offer me the same amount of future options that UCL could offer; however, I might just be biased because I personally would prefer to move to London. -LSE, Comparative Politics. I do not want to go there. It was my (badly picked) second choice, and it is excessively expensive. I am an EU student, and I could not really save much to pay for my studies. I am going to need to take a loan of 6-10,000 pounds (depending on my choice). Do you think it is worth it? Do you have any sort of suggestion to help me make a decision? Thanks a lot!
