Business Undergrad: Management Consulting or Tech, Which school?

Out of the following: UIUC, Indiana, Rutgers, UF, UMD, Purdue, Ohio State.
Looking for consulting or tech-oriented careers, possibly entrepreneurship / corp innovation, not accounting or finance.
How would you rank those schools and why? All are affordable - and higher-ranked schools are mostly not (won't get fin aid so the likes of Wharton are out of the question for undergrad).
