UCONN VS BARUCH undergrad

These are my top two cheapest choices. Uconn being 25k/affordable but a hassle and Baruch being 100% free and I'd be paid to go to. I know that Baruch is an overall better business school but I've been told that Uconn is an overall better school with a more reputable name. If I go to Baruch I'm ready to work, network, and strive for internships to break into IB and consulting. Please, can someone give me their input on what would be better for me.(I've gotten into Penn State Smeal and also Rutgers School of business but the two schools are too costly which illustrates that cost is a factor here. I also want to stray away from debt if I'd end up in the same place.)

I Don’t go to either of those schools but I’ve chatted with someone who went to Baruch and is now at a bb. I’m sure they’re both good

 

After my freshman year at uconn, I was thinking about transferring to baruch, but didn’t. i'm graduating this semester and going to a BB FT. We have 10-12+ people going to banking this year & big moodys pipeline. By no means a target, but alumni really try to help and can definitely break in if you work hard enough. PM me if you want to talk more about uconn
