Why choose Cass?

We know that rankings are all important to high achieving students when they make decisions about their future. So we're very proud that we do well in a lot of league tables, especially those that weight in favour of universities who deliver a top quality student experience and get their students into the best jobs at the best companies.

That is where Cass's strengths really lie. We'll give you a great experience while you are here - and set you up for a great career.

When you search the league tables, remember that we are part of City University London. We are therefore listed as 'City University' as this is how the results are compiled. All Cass's specific results can be seen if you separate into subject areas of 'business and management'.

Cass has gained a reputation as the hub of intellectual business knowledge for the City of London. Not just because we're in the City, but because we're intrinsically linked with the City. We know what makes it tick, the inside rules and who's who. Our academics have been, or still are, bankers, traders and analysts.

We also work with all the major City employers - in fact they help define our course content, so they get the best staff for their companies. Getting into the City is a competitive business, and Cass can give you that head start.

Cass students are focused on their career. They know what they want to achieve and they know that Cass will help them get there. Consequently, Cass students have an outstanding reputation with employers. The major banking institutions know that Cass students are highly selected, high achievers, with the right attitude - and a ready-to-go- to-work approach.

That's why Cass is a target institution for leading global companies such as Goldman Sachs and IBM. And that's why our graduates find jobs straight away, often before they've finished their final year (especially those that have undertaken placements).

With 1500 people from over 90 countries studying our undergraduate programmes, our student body is a rich mix of cultures, backgrounds and perspectives. So what makes Cass right for such independent minded individuals?

Above all, they all want a degree that will fulfil their aspirations in life. And they want to be challenged by innovative and future facing ideas in the process.

Cass students tend to stand out from the crowd - they are typically focused, often entrepreneurial and always questioning. They are attracted to the idea of combining hard work with fun, and flourish in a social and learning environment that is constantly stimulating but never intimidating.

Remember too that our campus is set in the heart of a vibrant urban environment. If you're looking to study beneath shady trees on the banks of a sleepy river, Cass is not for you! Studying at Cass combines two unique benefits: our school is in the hub of a truly global financial centre, which lies at the heart of a great world city.

Ultimately, everything about the Undergraduate programme at Cass is geared towards one thing - your career. Nobody is better placed or better prepared than Cass to propel you into a top career with the world's leading employers.

Our location at the beating heart of the world's leading financial centre gives you remarkable access to its leading practitioners. Through those networks we know what's happening and why, and we constantly adjust our programmes to reflect the latest trends and realities.

Moreover, you will be taught by academics with real knowledge of their subjects. That's because they have worked, or still work, in the City.

We will ensure that you will leave Cass ready to operate in the real world. Many top employers know that, which is why they actively seek out Cass graduates.
