University of Texas - McComb’s Business Honors Program (BBA)
Rice University - Mathematical Economic Analysis (BA)
Cornell University - Applied Economics & Management (BS)

Considering the following criteria:

Alumni network and school connections

Prestige and respect in the field

Initial job placement (particularly investment banking)

Opening more doors for higher level graduate education

Which of the three schools above trumps the other two in terms of a business-centric education?

(Note: Another factor to possibly consider is tuition fees. Being a Texas resident, UT = about $20K/yr, Rice & Cornell = about $45K/yr.)
