Boston College Carroll VS Rutgers Business School NB

I'm torn between Boston College Carroll for the hefty price tag (320k over 4 years) and going to Rutgers Business School North Bergen basically for free. I know that Boston College is much better, but my Dad has worked at Morgan Stanley for 10+ years and says he can get me an interview for a front-end job there. He is also friends with a managing Director of Goldamns and another at JP Morgan, so I'm not too worried about getting into the interview stage. For context, yes I only want a front end job at a major bank such as Goldmans, Morgan Stanley, etc. Thanks for the advice. 

(From what I've heard, there are about 5-15 kids that end up at a front end job at a BB from RBS)

Go to Rutgers. This isn’t too hard of a decision. Boston isnt miles better to justify a 320k price tag. If this was between Rutgers and an Ivy/similar then it would be different. If I were you, I would go to Rutgers and attempt to transfer to a target school. If you aren’t able to get into one then breaking it from Rutgers isn’t too hard with a little work.
