Transfer to Baruch or Northeastern

I'm currently at a SUNY school and can't decide between the following two schools. I'm not quite sure where to go. I would be pursuing a finance degree in both places. Please let me know what you guys think.

Pros/cons of northeastern: -placement into internships over summer -high tuition costs (will have to pay 45k a year)

Pros/cons of baruch: -heart of IB -great business school -low tuition -have to struggle to find internships yourself

Are you personally going to be taking out loans for $45k/yr? Keep in mind Northeastern is a 5 yr school, so that's going to cost even more. I've personally seen more kids in IB from Baruch than from Northeastern. Even though Northeastern is a "better" school, would seem that distance and lack of alumni really don't help it much in terms of placement in NYC. If you're a go-getter and have a history of hustle, you can't go wrong with Baruch. Then again, for anything other than IB..might have better backup options coming from Northeastern if you're not set on IB, but do not go there if you need to take out substantial loans as it's not worth it. The internships they place you into are not often roles that you can't get yourself each summer at Baruch
