Overthinking Uni

Hey everybody, could you please tell me whether I should get my undergrad in finance at Warwick or at Bocconi if I want to end up in NYC one day?

I believe Bocconi -> a top master’s in the US would be one option and Warwick -> London work experience -> internal transfer/an MBA in the US, would be the second.

Is my thinking right? Am I making a mistake somewhere? And which one do I choose?

Grateful for any advice/guidance.
