Undergrad Business school recommendations?

I'm in senior in high school, have been passionate about business for a while, and plan on finance. I'm looking to go into the Finance field, more specifically becoming a financial advisor. Which undergrad schools in the North East would you guys recommend? I have the obvious ones on my list (Dyson, stern, upenn, UVA) but also looking for some more on the safer side. Thanks

Don’t limit yourself to schools with undergrad business and finance programs. Most of the top schools don’t have them. You can join clubs and learn about business/finance on your own on the side.

I’d look into all of the top 20-50 schools (really depends on your profile) and apply to the schools you feel like you’d fit in at the best.
