Best MBAs for REPE?

I'm currently looking at MBA programs that could help to make a career transition into real estate private equity. What MBA programs are the best for moving into REPE on the East Coast? Currently seeing Wharton, Columbia, NYU, Kellogg, and UNC but wanted to see if there are additional ones worth looking at.


Thanks!

"Best for REPE" is literally the same list as whatever ranking people use for MBA programs in general. The better the school, the better your shot. 

Outside of the top programs, the best programs in the region you want to work are the next best choice.
