WashU Olin vs CMU Tepper vs Rice Jones (undergrad)

Hey everyone, I'm a senior making a decision rn and these are my 3 best options. I'm not 100% set on consulting (also interested in tech and want to potentially shoot for product manager roles or SWE so I want to keep that option open). Could anyone give some insight into what might be best, and also just insight into recruiting landscapes at each school? I was initially set on deciding between WashU and Rice because I honestly have no idea what it's like at Tepper.
