UCI business economics vs. UCSB econ/accounting

Hello everyone. I'm a sophmore at a California CC getting ready to transfer. I'm very interested in entering investment banking upon graduating. I will be applying to UCB, UCLA, USC, and Pomona College as far as in state schools. I can also TAG (transfer admission guarantee) with UCI or UCSB. SInce I can only sign TAG with 1 of those schools, which one will give me a better shot at IB, as well as summer internships?

 
Joseph590:

Would CAL Berk not be a better alternative? Also in the same situation as OP.

Berkeley is of course a better alternative, but his question was which school should he TAG.
MM IB -> Corporate Development -> Strategic Finance
