Undergraduate School Options Please Help!!

I want to go into consulting, IB, or general finance. Maybe minor in something CS related

My options for undergrad are Bryant University, Virginia Tech, Binghamton, UPITT, Indiana ( not directly admitted to Kelley) and Fairfield University 

Money is a factor, Bryant will cost 38K while the rest are going to be earning 57k

I am leaning towards Bryant because of the cost, but it seems that people have a lot of negative things to say. Any real good advice is appreciated. Hardworking and motivated student who wants to make a mark.

I'd go Bryant with the benefit of cost. They have a really great business school and you can really get good offers coming out of college. You're not looking at any of the Ivies, so everything is all relative. If you could get Indiana for in-state tuition, I'd take it and then transfer into b-school. But otherwise, 38K is pretty darn good for overall cost, considering these sky high college prices. I agree with the hard work part cause if you work hard, the opportunities will come.
