IU Kelley vs NYU Stern vs NYU CAS vs UMich LSA

So, I've gotten into IU kelley and will get into UMich LSA (probably not Ross direct though).

I was going to apply NYU Stern, with NYU CAS chosen as a backup. But I'm also considering straight applying to CAS instead of Stern for economics instead of finance.

I wanted to go into investment banking for a while now, but I'm having some second thoughts about it. Not about the work load or anything, but just if finance is really my interest or what I want to do for my life. I've considered going into law school after, and I find economics very interesting. So I'm just kinda lost.

If I were to go into investment banking, would NYU CAS still be better than IU Kelley?

Indiana University has the investment banking workshop, which is as good as any program in the country in getting people into BB places. Outside of that, IU is very strong in Marketing and has a respectable consulting funnel.

This is undergrad right? Just making sure. I turned down Dartmouth and Michigan to go to Indiana University and it was one of the best decisions of my life, both financially and in terms of overall experience. Go to collegeconfidential.com and read the threads. Go to google and look up images of the campus. It's truly a special, special place.
