UNC or Dartmouth?

I have been admitted as a Freshman to UNC Chapel Hill and Dartmouth, and would love some industry perspective on whether or not there is a discernible difference in recruiting opportunities from the two schools. How significant is it that I could attain a business-centric degree as an undergrad at Kenan-Flagler as opposed to Dartmouth's liberal arts curriculum? I am particularly interested in Asset Management rather than IB or consulting, so I would appreciate any specifically pertinent input.

You can't beat the Ivy League pedigree, even if you can't get an undergrad business degree from most schools there. I would choose Dartmouth because of the wealth of opportunities it gives you.

I used to do Asia-Pacific PE (kind of like FoF). Now I do something else but happy to try and answer questions on that stuff.
