London Business School Tuition.

Holy CRAP!  To think i was even thinking of this!!!!

*cough* over £42,000 a year. OMG. And i wouldn't be working so that's 0 for me....

i'd be stuck in england FOREVER paying that off! guess if i want grad school, it's back in the US.

man, that really brought me down a level!

Wow that is a lot of money!!!!  Why is it so much!?  I think that is loads more then Warton or Harvard!

Wow, I was thinking of eventually going to Bus. School in London, but who can afford that kind of tuition!!!  Are they all that expensive?!?  Or is that school just particularly prestigious...

Harvard, for one, ramps up the tuition because the payer is usually a corporation.  A corporate sponsor just writes it off.  Not a great number of HBS students are footing the bill. 

Aimiloo, See if you're company will pay.

My former BIL went to HBS this way.  But he had to agree to work for the company for at least 2 years after graduation.  And he paid back all that tuition . . . in blood, sweat and tears.

He had any body fluids left after he graduated??

it was the two years after graduation in which they got him.  he called it his indentured servitude.  and it certainly did give that impression. 

Like you said somewhere else Expat, there is no such thing as a free lunch is there? Two years tied to the firm is pretty standard for sponsorship of a higher degree.

Aimiloo is that the overseas student rate?

Yep, he knew the score when he went into it.  And it was worth it in the end for him.  He makes a mint now.

But £42,000?!  YOUCH!

couldnt you do 'grad school' somewhere else in London other than London Business School?

All grad schools in London will be expensive if you are paying international tuition.

bvamin

So intl tuition means anyone who isn't a British citizen, right?  Or can you avoid it if you are there because of someone else and have been living in the UK for 2 years or so?  (That's just me being hopeful of course!!!)

i was looking at the london business school as well... by the time i apply i'll have been here for 3-4 years... so hopefully i'll have my ILR by then.  I won't have to pay international tuitition fees??? i hope not.

"Home students" are those who have resided in the UK for at least 3 years.  Doesn't matter if you're a citizen or not.  In fact, if you are a UK citizen who hasn't resided in the UK for at least the 3 years previous to your enrolment, you would pay "international" fees!
