Which School Would You Choose?

I'm a graduating HS senior w/ these options to attend college

UNC Chapel Hill (not direct admit for kenan-flagler, would have to apply in after freshman yr, so there's some risk involved there) - 70k/yr
IU Kelley - 50k/yr
Rutgers Business School - ~40k/yr

Money isn't a make or break for my family, we'd be able to afford UNC if it's worth the extra price. Career goal isn't necessarily just IB, still exploring other routes out there such as AM.

With most of y'all having gone through the whole finance recruiting process (regardless of IB or smth else), do you guys have any thoughts? Thanks a lot.
