Edinburgh, Nottingham, Manchester or Bocconi University for Front office job (undergraduate study)

I have an offer from all of them for Economics and Finance at undergraduate level. I was wondering which order people would put these universities in terms of ability to get a front office role at an investment bank?

Thank you.

 

Target in the UK is Oxbridge/LSE---->UCL, Imperial, Warwick----->rest of Russel Group--------->everything else

Ive met a few Bocconi people in first and final interviews, although not usually undergrad, if you're a UK student though going somewhere like Notts (which has a strong econ dept-top 10) and networking in the UK might be easier then going to Bocconi then trying to break back into London from another country, less OCR, HR hates what it cannot understand etc is my understanding, but may be wrong, I'm sure Bocconi people would disagree

 

Ed or boc

Ed is well respected and four years (more years in intern and you're doing zero face to face networking from Nottingham)

Boc just churns out bankers. May need to do a masters
