Kelley IBW or Rutgers Road to Wall Street?

I am a high school senior who needs to commit to college this month and seek opinions regarding Kelley's Investment Banking Workshop vs. Rutgers' Road to Wall Street Program. Based on my research, I have understood that there are slightly more slots at the IBW and that it places very well if you can get in, given that it is hyper-competitive. However, at Rutgers, the Road to Wall Street Program also places extremely well into Wall Street and more fields than IB. The fact that both these schools have strong programs puts me in a dilemma. In making my decision, I try to account for the possibility that I am not admitted into either of these programs. While Kelley has stronger placement outside of the program unlike Rutgers, Rutgers has its pros like in-state tuition which would potentially give a higher ROI and easy networking since it neighbors New York. If you had to pick, what would you pick and why?

 

Kids I've known from both schools were boners who couldn't get a return offer. Go to the one with the easiest chance at a 4.0 and transfer.
