UC Davis vs UC Riverside

I got into UC Riverside and UC Davis, and I want to go into finance. UC Davis has a new business program starting this year, UCR has had a business program. As well, UCR is near the LA area, which would be good for internshipsvs Davis which is closer to Sacramento, and I wouldn’t want to work a government job. Which one would you recommend to go into for finance? I’m not sure what I want career path I want to go into finance for also, but I know I wouldn’t do IB just because of the hours.
