Which CUNY/SUNY should I attend?

Hi everyone, first post here. Got shafted on Ivy Day and now I'm trying to make the best of things.
I'm deciding between Baruch, Binghamton, Hunter (the honors program), Stony Brook. I'm waitlisted at UChicago and Stern which I'm going to try and get into.

Which school do you think I should attend, and what should my game plan be if I want to be front office? Thanks.

Forgot to mention it in post, but if I wanted to transfer, would it be better to go to another school that might be seen as more rigorous?

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
