I am working at a big bank with four years of working experience, and I want to pivot into a career in Data Analytics. I was a Math major and love working with data, but my current job has very little to do with Quant or Data. I applied to 6 MSBA/MSQM programs this year. So far, I got accepted at Georgetown, Duke, NYU, and UVA, and waiting for results from Carnegie Mellon and Cornell. My deadline to give Georgetown my final decision is in three days. Right now, I am deciding between Georgetown and Duke.

Cost: About the same- Duke only costs $7K more.
Ranking: Duke Fuqua ranks higher for sure.
Curriculum: Georgetown's curriculum seems to have more courses in analytics, while Duke's sounds like an MBA with a Quant focus. I have no experience in coding & analytics tools and want to learn these skills, so this is a plus for Georgetown. If anyone here went to Duke MSQM, I would also like to ask which analytics tools are taught in this program (I saw R and Python, but what about Machine Learning, SQL, and Tableau...?)
Alumni network: I think Duke has a better network, but Georgetown is only 30 mins from my house, so I might have more chances to attend their events in person if any.

reading your brief summary seems that you are inclined towards pursuing more of technical course rather a course with administrative electives.. with that sure Georgetown looks to be better... but on the other hand Duke is equally good I would advise you to connect with alumni and existing students to understand differences because on website vs in reality things do differ viz. class electives , faculty , networking etc...
