Really the two schools are probably of quite similar standing, but I'd say Nottingham is the safer brand. Its business school is longer established and it has a larger MBA cohort.

For most of the last decade, Newcastle and Nottingham have both been bumping in and out of the top 100 lists by the FT and The Economist. Nottingham has a higher profile and, for example, gets ten applicants per seat compared to Newcastle's five.

PS I'm assuming you mean Newcastle University Business School not the "Newcastle Business School" in the title of your post. The latter is part of the former Polytechnic, and does not have the same good standing.
