UC Berkeley Haas or UNC (In-state) for banking

I am a high school senior who has just got accepted into both the Haas School of Business and UNC (not assured admit to Kenan-Flagler) for my undergrad. I am having a hard time deciding if Haas is worth the extra out of state cost, Haas would cost 40-50k more every year. I would be able to pay for it without taking out any loans, but I want to make sure Haas is worth the money. I want to go into either banking/consulting, but am not sure if I want to get an MBA or not. Please feel free to drop any thoughts or concerns that would help me with this decision.

I'd look through some of the placements that the school's have had recently. Look for the main finance clubs at those schools, and they'll probably have their placements public.
