(Undergrad) NYU Stern or Cornell ORE?

Recently got into both NYU Stern and Cornell ORE. I'm trying to decide between the two as someone who wants to go into finance in the future. I think ORE might give me a more quantitative skillset, but Stern obviously offers better finance-related opportunities. Which should I choose, or what are some aspects of each of these schools that might make them the better fit for a prospective finance student?
