MBA Decision -SE Focus

Hey WSO, I am a currently deciding between MBA's (UNC, Darden & Duke) and got accepted to UNC, and am waiting to hear back from the others. Was curious on your opinions if UNC-KF is good enough to jump to banking? I have a history doing credit research / Enterprise valuation / financial modeling, just not to the degree bankers do and wanted to hit the MBA reset button. Also, I am focusing on ending up in the Charlotte / Atlanta area. Thoughts on just committing to UNC?
