Wall Street Undergraduate Recruitment?

Hey WSO!

So I'm an aspiring Grade 11 student in an Ontario high school, and I've been considering applying for some undergraduate programs in the United States.This is primarily because the job market there is simply larger. My dream is to work on Wall Street, so I'm looking at schools that have strong recruitment programs for Junior and Senior interns. (Ideally, I would attend this school for 4 years, get a two year internship at a BB like so many students do, then go and get an MBA done.)

I've narrowed it down to two schools that I'd put as my top choices. The first one is the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. The second one is Columbia University. I haven't done as much research on Columbia as Penn, but I know Penn has a very strong recruitment drive for BB banks in the senior years. (I think somewhere around half of their senior year ended up doing 2 year stints at a BB.)

Do you guys have any advice as to which of these schools has a bigger recruitment drive? Or any advice at all on the whole undergrad intern idea I have? I really appreciate any advice I could get.
