Undergrad Baruch or Fordham?

The only schools I've been accepted to Baruch and Fordham. My gpa was pretty bad until senior year where I got a 4.4 first semester with 4 Ap and 3 regular classes. I also have a 34 act and a 780 math 2 subject test. 2nd semester I plan on getting all A's.

Which school of those would give me the greatest Opportunites to break into ib and what other options are available to me right now?

 

Baruch is a lot cheaper, Fordham and Baruch are ranked at about the same levels so I would say go to Baruch. Either way both schools are non-target for IB so you'll have to put in major work to land an IB internship.
