IU Kelley vs UW Foster undergrad?

Preface- I know neither are targets for IB but are the best options I have right now.

Heres the cost outline
UW (direct admit to Foster)- 130k total
IU ( direct admit to Kelley and honors) - 148k total

IU has IB workshop but I certainly can’t guarantee admission
UW is located in Seattle, great for tech companies

I really dont care where I end up as long as exit opps are still decent. Parents will pay all costs with no loans.

Any input is appreciated, thanks.
