MBA from Georgetown vs NYU Stern

Hi there, I'm an international student looking to pursue an MBA in the States, and my post-MBA goal is to recruit into IB (top BB or EB) in NYC. Got an offer at Georgetown, got waitlisted at NYU Stern, got waitlisted at Notre Dame and was denied at Cornell. NYU has been the first choice for obvious reasons, but given that time is running out for Fall 2023 intake, I'm torn on whether I should commit and go with Georgetown, which I'm still unsure about. My main decision factor is recruitment prospects; there is mixed info about the strength of Georgetown MBA for IB recruiting. Need help clarifying this more, and any additional advice is very welcome.
