Concordia (JMSB) MBA or Baruch MS Finance

I have received admits for both the above programs (JMSB-MBA and CUNY Baruch- Ms Finance). While the location of Baruch is good for finance, I am confused whether its worth sacrificing the MBA from canada.

I know both are non target schools, but I am fine as long as I get into Big4s/ back office jobs.

Please help me gain a bit of a clear understanding. A brief snapshot of my profile is as below:

1) International student with over 2.5 year of client facing Big4 experience.

2) GPA- Wes credentials : 3.94

3) GMAT- 680

4) Looking to get into Finance/ accounting jobs. IB/ PE jobs are a goal but I dont mind adjusting during entry years.
