McCombs ($$) vs Anderson (no $)

Hello all! I was recently admitted to McCombs with a decent scholarship as well as Anderson with no scholarship. My background is in sales and I'm looking to move into marketing through brand/product management in cpg or tech. I'm not too particular at this point as to where I want to live post-MBA, I could definitely see myself in CA or maybe even Austin long-term (currently live in Chicago and that would be another option).
I'm fairly convinced that McCombs is the right move here, but wanted to see others' input in case I'm just completely missing something here...
I absolutely loved my visit to Anderson, but I also had a great experience at McCombs (plus the new Rowling Hall is opening). Anderson is ranked just a tad higher and I'm not sure that alone is worth the greater cost. Would career center, alumni, companies that recruit at Anderson make it worthwhile to go there instead and pass up the money from McCombs?
Thanks for the feedback
