Your situation was almost identical to my own situation, right down to the 30K per year cost/choosing between Penn and Rutgers/even the family income. Not going into details but ultimately I chose Penn because a) family found out it would affordable over all four years and b) and it really did have its opportunities that Rutgers didn’t have.

I love Rutgers, will always root for the Scarlet Knights in sports events, and, unlike what I’ve heard that is said about it in Penn, will never talk negatively about the school. Ultimately, Penn is the better choice if you’re going into finance, especially Wall Street. The experiences you can get from an Ivy renowned for its business opportunities is unmatched.
