MSF: Virginia MS in Commerce Finance Track vs WUSTL

I recently was accepted to both of these schools and I was wondering which school has the better overall reputation and would be better for breaking into IB. Thanks!

Both are great. I think UVA has less IB, but that is because they have a management and marketing track which is around 60% of the class. Placements are at all the top banks and boutiques. I'd personally got to UVA, but you wont go wrong with WUSTL either.
