MSIS NEU Toronto VS Smith BS at Queen's Kingston

Question

I have submitted my application for MSIS NEU Toronto since 25th of Feb, and my application is under committee review since too long  
I have submitted my CV for a preliminary assessment at Smith Business School Queen's University - Masters of Management Analytics and an application advisor sent me encouraging me to continue my application and asking me to send my full transcripts and papers, now I am confused on what to do, wait for NEU MSIS or go for the Smith MMA, the MMA at Smith is very cost-worthy- 80K CAD in one year and classes are hold only twice per week!

The thing with B-Schools is, they are very costly to study in, but once you graduate from there your earnings will be so high that you wouldn't even worry about your education loans not being repaid.
Smith School of Business is much more renowned in Canada and in the world than the NEU Toronto. The latter isn't even the main campus of NEU and there is no assurance whether the reputation for this degree at Toronto will give you a good ROI!
You were encouraged to continue your application at Smith by an advisor, which means that there is a high chance of admission to a highly reputed school. Unless you have a very good reason to pick NEU Toronto, I'd say that Smith is worth the investment. Find yourself an assistantship or a part time job to cover your expenses the rest of the week, and you will end up with much less debt by the end of the program!
