UT Austin Economics vs NYU Economics

Hi monkeys, I have been accepted to both NYU CAS EDII and UT Austin for Economics. If I attend either, I plan on transferring into the respective business schools. UT is about 6k/year cheaper than NYU. My end goal has always been NYC IB, but I want a traditional college experience as well. Is NYU’s domination over UT in finance so significant that I should pick it despite lower quality of life? In other words, could I reach NYC IB from UT?

Thanks in Advance
