Duke Kunshan University

HEY, i'm a Pakistani International student applying to US universities for my undergraduate, I'm Interested in Management/ESG Consulting.

I want a US Liberal Arts experience along with a unique experience and perspective that one can achieve being in a rapidly emerging market, while learning a new language,  in this case mandarin. This is why DKU caught my eye, it gives great Financial Aid as well. 

I do NOT want US recruiting, and I KNOW i cant do that from DKU. but i dont want to.

I wanna do an MSc in Europe afterwards, from a target like HEC, LSE, or Bocconi. I can already speak french at a B1 level, and i wanna get to C1 by next year, Im also studying for the CFA rn in high school cuz i wanna give it as soon as i can. 

After my MSc in europe is when im gonna be recruiting. so the question after all that yapping is, would universities and recruiters in europe associate DKU negatively due to the fact that it is in China, even tho i get a degree from Duke University in the US, no strings attached?

or am i better off ED-ing to a LAC like Grinnell College, another high aid school. But harder to get into.
