I am currently about to enter my senior year of college. I majored in Sociology with minors in Bus Admin and Economics. I have done a good job and have a pretty nice GPA. I was looking to get my masters in Economics focusing on either Development Economics or International Trade. I know that I want to get my masters degree in UK as they offer it in a short time frame compared to the US.

The schools at the top of my list are UCL, Queen Mary, York and maybe even Glasgow as they each offer the subjects I’m looking for. The question that I have is with not majoring Economics is my chances of getting in any good. Lately I have increased my math course. Because I realized that in the UK math is a major part of the masters programs.
I
was just looking for some advice. Even if you can tell me about another school that might be a good fit for me. Are they gonna consider the US school that I went to as well. I didn’t go to an Ivy League school but Ole Miss is considered a good school.
