Villanova vs Northeastern vs Bentley

Which of the three has the overall best program for finance? I'm looking to work in Boston or New York post college, leaning towards the Boston area. Villanova and Bentley both gave me enough fin aid to attend for free while I will have to take around 20k in loans to attend Northeastern. I haven't been to Villanova yet and am planning to visit during accepted students day in a couple weeks. Which business schools do you guys think is the most reputable?

Villa no Fun! But seriously... That's a good deal if it's free.
