IU Kelley vs Boston College (Carroll)

So I got into Kelley and Carroll this Fall, and I would like to get into IBD in NYC or Chicago. Which university do you guys think is more targeted by banks? I heard that the IB Workshop at Kelley is pretty difficult to get into (like 3.7-3.9 GPA), so I'm not gonna assume I'll get into it. Also, would Carroll be better than non-workshop at Indiana?

I think this question gets asked every week.

It’s Carroll unless you are from Indiana.

The people who say Kelley are IU grifters who, for whatever reason, are over represented on WSO

 

Facing the exact same problem. I am an international student and got in BC CSOM (Finance) and IU (Pre-Business). But CSOM will cost me 80k per year while IU just 50k after scholarship. Do you think it is worth spending 120k more over 4 years for BC?
