Deciding between Oberlin and IU Kelley ..

Hello!

Yes, this will be another "which school will get me farther" and if you have read this far, I thank you for sticking around. Coming up on the end of the (undergrad) college admissions process, I am left stuck deciding between two quite different schools: Oberlin College (econ+math major) and IU-Kelley (direct admit). Which do you believe would be better for a a potential career in finance?

All feedback is appreciated.
