College Choices

Hello, I have been browsing this forum for a while and it has been very informative! I am a senior in high school, fascinated by the thought of working in the financial industry and I am in a bit of a dilemma. I have the option to go to the University of Florida, possibly going through the MSF track in the future since I have heard they get fairly decent placements or go to UT Austin, but as an econ major and try to internally transfer into Mccombs. As with everything I realise it is more about what you actually achieve there through internships etc however any advice on the opportunities available in either college would be very helpful to me in making my decision. Thanks for reading and have a good day!

Tbh it's unlikely anyone here can give you guidance on such a specific question. If you want to get into finance, study hard and be humble whilst networking.
