Personally, I think both are solid schools and neither gives you a definitive edge over the other. NYU might make it slightly easier to place into the New York office, as you may be able to make more connections with people in that office given proximity and it would help cement your "why NYC". But NYC is always a high-demand office, so I doubt that interest filter is as important vs. Dallas (as an example).
On broader note, not "easy" to get an offer (for NYC or any other office).
Are you using this filter as an input to making a college decision? That would be way down my list of criteria. Go to the place that you have a better gut feel about and excel when you get there. Far more important.
