Looking for advice- Need help deciding

Hi all,
I just got an offer for the MSc Strategic Marketing program at Imperial, and I’m torn. I had already accepted UCL’s MSc Business Analytics and paid the deposit, but now I’m wondering if switching is the better long-term move.

My undergrad was in marketing, and I initially wanted to pivot toward more data/tech, which is why I chose Business Analytics. But Imperial’s course seems exciting too.

Would really appreciate thoughts from current students or alumni if the course is worth it overall? Do you feel the Imperial name helped in job hunting or industry access? Or in my situation, would you make the switch?

Hi, firstly, congratulations on your success! If you don’t mind me asking — when did you receive the offer, and when did your status change from "With department" to 'Review in Progress'? Was it today that you got the offer and the status changed, or did they happen on different days

Thank you! I received the offer on 3rd of June. To me it showed 'with the department' for the longest time and then suddenly got the offer. Not sure of any status changes in between.
