Looking to switch from IT to banking. Which school would be best? Although Stern is in NYC, it seems that Fuqua is viewed as more prestigious. Is that true?

I applied to both schools (got into one and WL by the other), so I've done some research on both programs (through WSO and the schools). Feel free to correct me, but here are my impressions: Stern: more people recruit for ibanking, thus it's more competitive. However, being in NYC you get more exposure to the banks (particularly the EBs). On the other hand, you are required to network much more because of the location. Overall, it seems like most people will have a good shot at ibanking, but you might have to hustle a tad bit more.
