Indiana University vs Penn State MBA for Finance (IB)

Hello I am currently deciding whether to pursue an online MBA at Indiana University or Penn State for finance. I will be working full time while I do my MBA since my company is paying for it. I want to switch careers into IB after (or during) the 2 year program. Hopefully as an associate. I am currently a Financial Analyst 2 at a fortune 50 company. Please let me know if you have any advice for my situation. Thank you!
