Any knowledge on Fordham's Global Business Honors Program?

I'm a high school senior who wants to major in finance and probably do investment banking right out of college. 

I got a full ride to Fordham and got accepted into the "Global Business Honors Program", but I can't really gauge how much this will help me in terms of breaking into investment banking from Fordham (non-target)

I can't really afford super expensive private schools like Boston College or any ivies, and most of my college list has been defined by the amount of merit aid they could give me (I wouldn't have qualified for any need based aid). 

The other schools on my list that might give me merit money are UNC and Northeastern, but this would be a stretch for my parents.

Any advice? Would I do fine from Fordham? Would Northeastern or UNC be that much of a step up? How well does this program place?
