Washu vs Vanderbilt vs Georgetown vs UVA

If you had to pick between WashU, Vanderbilt, Georgetown, and UVA for breaking into MBB, which would you go with? I'm curious how they compare in terms of recruiting and brand strength for consulting, especially outside their home regions. Any insight would be great.

Which one would you go to (assuming same cost)
