Umich Dearborn vs Baruch Econ/Finance

I am currently a student at Eastern Michigan University. I always had hopes to transfer to the University of Michigan but due to medical problems my grades took a severe hit towards the beginning of college and I had to take almost two years off. During my time off (once I was well again) I worked for a start-up and later did marketing and sales for a health care staffing company. Ideally I would like to break into banking, but without the courses and networking of a target school this will be damn near impossible. I have been back in school for three semesters and since resuming classes I have maintained above a 3.8 in every term.

Eastern has limited opportunities when it comes to internships and alumni resources. I have been working on building my personal network, but as of right now it consists mainly of consultants. At this point I have the opportunity to either transfer to
University of Michigan-Dearborn or CUNY Baruch.

Many say that Umich- Dearborn will offer me the Michigan name which will open up many doors in the future. However, there is a significant difference in the courses offered in Ann Arbor vs those at Dearborn -there is a reason Ann Arbor's admissions are more competitive. So how is it valid to say Umich-Dearborn is the MICHIGAN name which is recognized around the world?

Baruch on the other hand is located in NYC and has been starting to get recruitment from JP Morgan and some of the big 4. However, this recruitment is mainly for back office positions. Would it be worth it to attend Baruch, work as hard I can and to attain good work experience and then shoot for a top MBA program? Will my opportunities be greater at Baruch vs. Dearborn?

Some people are suggesting that I stay at Dearborn for a few semesters, do well and then try to transfer to Ann Arbor. I applied last term and was rejected. With close to 60 credits I doubt the admissions committee will change their minds when I add on two more semesters worth of credits. The assistant director of admissions from Ann Arbor once told me that once a student has well over 70 credits, they no longer think transferring is in the students best interest.

I am also trying to decide if it would be best to pursue Econ or finance. According to my credit evaluation from Dearborn it would take me significantly longer to complete a degree in finance rather than Econ. I still have not received my credit evaluation from Baruch (I heard this takes a while).

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
