Value of Loyola MBA in Nola

Obviously, an MBA from Tulane is tops, however, for a person living and working in New Orleans, does a Loyola MBA carry any weight, or is it a waste of 40k?
I'm assuming the following...
Tulane>Loyola>UNO>Nothing
Are these assumptions accurate? I'm in banking, FWIW.
TIA

Probably does ok but if you can get into TU, do it. TU has a much better B-school, IMO.
Disclosure: Im biased to TU because I went there for my undergrad.

40k sounds like a complete waste of money unless it is from a top school... But I hire engineers, not MBA's, so what do i know?
If your company is paying for most of it and you will take it seriously, then it won't hurt.

I did an EMBA which cost me about $40K. A traditional MBA from the same school would have cost me about $25K. When I considered that I would reduce my own income by going part time to attend grad school it actually made sense to spend the additional money on the EMBA tuition. In the end I got what I'd argue was a better education and more connections via the EMBA and the income I earned during the program offset any additional premiums.
Just something to think about...

I just got my MBA from UNO. I did the executive program. Every other weekend, and it's only 18 months. It was $31k. I feel like the program was done very well, and just like any school setting, you get what you put into it.
