UGA or IU kelley for IB

Hello all, I need help deciding between UGA and IU. I was accepted to both IU kelley and UGA. I was accepted direct admit to IU and am receiving a solid scholarship. I am able to afford either and neither would be a problem financially. I understand that Kelley is a great b-school but I loved the campus at UGA and would really like to go there. I also liked IU but not quite as much as UGA. Opinions?

UGA sends about 20 kids to IB every year compared to IU who sends about 85-90. Although, the overall student body will be smarter at Kelley.

 

Kelley is a solid semi target for banking. Whereas UGA is a complete nontarget. There's probably a few people on the street that are UGA alumni, but you're experience will be significantly easier at Kelley. That being said, UGA will probably be a more fun school to be at.
