IU Kelley Vs UT Business Honors Vs Umich Ross

Where would I be best off, all things considered? For reference, IU would be ~160k, UT would be ~250k, and Umich would be a nauseating 290k.

It is worth noting that I got into the general honors college at IU, as well as Business Honors at UT

I want to break into IB, preferably in NY, and my parents can pay ~160k, so IU would mean no debt. I'm really torn between the value of not having debt versus the top-level placement at UT and especially Umich. I feel that since all of these schools are big state schools that I will have a pretty enjoyable overall experience at all of them, but I was hoping for any input on OCR and IB placement at these schools.

Also, any input on the emphasis placed on where I get my undergrad degree versus an MBA (assuming I get one) would be great.

Any response would be greatly appreciated.

Ross is worth it. Kelley isn’t even close to the tier of the other two. UT Austin if you want to save a little money at the cost of slightly lower rank.

 

Ross far outplaces UT austin BHP in NY IB. It's not even close...

Look at linkedin. Ross gets into just about every bank into the street.

And I even went to a different school from all of these
