I was recently accepted to both Olin and Johnson with the intention of moving from engineering into asset management. Of these schools, and the underlying scholarship amounts (full tuition vs. ~ 20% tuition), which one would you go with?

Congratulations on the Admit and a Scholarship!
I don't know how Johnson is in terms of Asset Management - I would guess OKish? Johnson or rather Cornell is a part of the Ivy League; however it is probably the lowest ranked of all the Ivy's
On a pure numbers/rankings evaluation, I think Olin with Full Scholarship wins over Johnson. Even though this year, Johnson is #14 and Olin is #21, the two schools have been as close as 1 spot apart and in the long run are ranked close.
Cornell has a larger program (280 vs 140 at Olin) and that usually means more employers are attracted/visit the campus for on-campus hiring. However, numbers for employment at graduation are identical for both programs and are actually much better for Olin than Johnson 3 months out.
Digging more in the employment reports, it does not look like Johnson places into asset management - they don't call it out in the employment report; only in the internship report and Olin, while modest, did place 7 people somewhere, likely in the midwest/Chicago area. You can see from their placements, they are quite regional.
I would pick Olin as it beats Johnson in almost every aspect when it gets to your goals and needs.
