Syracuse Honors vs Rutgers Honors vs Fordham

I have been admitted to the Rutgers business school and the SAS honors program, Syracuse Whitman and the Honors college, and Fordham. I plan to work in the risk field but I also want to give myself a shot at IB/PE. Fordham would be the most expensive, being 80k more than Syracuse. I got really good money and love the campus at Syracuse, and I have heard about the Orange Value Fund there. Does anyone have any info about that. Looking at websites I haven't seen it being updated and I'm not sure if its still around. Rutgers would be the cheapest, but the money I am getting from my parents would be able to cover most of Syracuse or Rutgers. The 80-100k extra for Fordham would be debt for me. I plan on dual majoring or majoring and minoring in finance and math. Any advice on which to pick? I love and am very good at math so I would love to go towards Risk or any math-oriented business field. I am also interested in Private Equity and Banking and am willing to work hard to get in as I understand doing so from these schools will not be easy. Thanks

 

What’s the actual cost in dollars for each?

not the answer you want to hear but I would do county college for a year and apply for a transfer to better schools 

Syracuse is incredibly overpriced from what I’ve seen - very weak finance recruiting 

Rutgers sucks as a school for atmosphere 

fordham too expensive (if Fordham was full ride - fine not a bad idea)
