UIUC vs OSU Rochester and USC ?

I am extremely new here so please bear with me.

I have been accepted by UIUC MSF and OSU MSF at the moment. I have interviewed with Rochester (Simon school of Business) and am also awaiting decision from USC.

I am an international student from India. I have a Masters in Commerce and am in the midst of CA (Chartered Accountancy) which is the Indian equivalent to US CPA. I also have 3 years workex at Deloitte in Assurance Services.

Post MSF, it would be best for me to target Big 4 consultancies since I have already worked with Deloitte before.

Which school would be most preferable for me to land a job in the US? Since MSF is quite a big investment, finding a job back here would not give me the best returns. I don't have any preference city wise. I am really worried about placements as I know it very tough but I am prepared to try as much as I can.

Please help me out since I don't want to take a decision without having adequate info at this stage which might hamper my job search later on.
