Rutgers vs. NYU?

I just finished my first year at Rutgers. I made it into the Road to Wall Street Program and there is a Student Managed Fund at Rutgers. I've heard Rutgers presence on wall street has been better in the past couple years. 

I just applied to NYU for transfer and was accepted to Stern. It will cost a lot more than Rutgers, which I'm currently paying 27k/yr for. If I went to Stern, it would likely cost 60k/yr or more depending on aid which hasn't been released.

Is transferring really worth spending the extra money? I am hoping to break in to sales and trading.
