Getting VC on the coasts is going to be tough without being local... but your best bet is to be in the heart of Chicago.
I've found over two years in NYC that being in the city was a huge boon and provided me the opportunity to spend time at a handful of VC firms (Think USV, Founders Fund, Thrive, etc.) and gets you plugged into the national network, but it takes some hustle. Booth will provide the easier access to someone like ARCH, which is a gateway into the national network.

i'm from NYC and have built some connections here and am hoping to do a pre-mba summer internship with a VC firm. from speaking with people at kellogg, it doesn't seem the location is much of a disadvantage as the city is a pretty quick uber/train ride away.
