MSc in imperial vs bristol

​

​

Hi everyone,

​

I’m trying to understand how competitive MSc AI-related courses are at Imperial compared with Bristol, especially in relation to the SPARK AI Scholarship.

​

For context, I received an offer from Bristol very quickly, about 1 day after applying. For Imperial, I received an offer a few weeks after an interview.

​

I applied for the SPARK AI Scholarship at Bristol but was rejected outright. I’m now wondering what my chances might be at Imperial. Is the scholarship pool likely to be even more competitive there, or could it be more selective/filtered because Imperial’s admission process itself seems stricter?

​

I’m mainly trying to understand whether a rejection from Bristol means my chances are low everywhere. Would appreciate any insights from people familiar with MSc AI admissions or scholarship selection at either Imperial or Bristol!!!
