Purdue Daniels vs. Miami (OH) Farmer for IB?

I am a current high school senior, and my goal is to break into investment banking. I have been accepted into Purdue Daniels and Miami Farmer for Finance, and these are currently my top options. I have also been accepted into SMU and IU pre-business, but SMU is not financially possible for me, and I have heard that getting admission into Kelley from Standard admission is challenging. 

I understand that breaking into IB is going to be a challenge no matter where I go and it's going to be a grind, but which of these universities do you think can help give me the best shot? I am also open to attempting to transfer. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
