Northwestern does place a lot of students in consulting, however many of the jobs are in Chicago. Cornell may give you an edge with NYC due to geography. I cannot comment on placement in Europe.

“one should never choose a school based on prestige” -> while I disagree with this, NU and Cornell have nearly identical rankings, and the difference in academic quality is minimal. The Ivy League status may give Cornell a little more name recognition, granted.

I would hardly call NU “the fratty athletic type,” although many students are in Greek life and students tend to e well rounded.
