The "Ivy" Tag

I currently attend a non-Ivy school that's ranked between 8 and 15 in the USNWR college rankings. Would transferring to an Ivy League institution boost my chances of breaking into management consulting? How would my school compare to its Ivy peers, such as Cornell, Brown, Dartmouth, and Penn (non-Wharton) in the job market?
