I’m considering all of these programs as well. UChicago’s CCIB program (and Booth School of Business Certificate) would definitely be something to look at. From my point of view, I’d choose Chicago + Booth over Northwestern + Kellogg simply because Chicago has the best economics program. Apparently, though, a high GPA is important for recruitment, so both Duke and Northwestern win in that respect (grade deflation at Chicago). Oh and btw, Duke offers a Marketing Certificate (though its not finance, it is business related) which is something to consider as well.
