UIUC Statistics and Computer Science

I was admitted to the statistics and computer science program at UIUC. Would it be possible get a job at a BB as a quant or trader in Chicago or Wall Street with such a degree from UIUC especially with data science trending and UIUC being an elite computer science school?
