Which schools to attend?

Hey I'm currently a 2nd year college student majoring in Finance/Economics. I find interest in both majors and don't mind the difference between them. Currently I'm attending a community college North of NYC and am transferring to eventually get my bachelors and later masters in finance. I applied to four schools, Iona College, Pace University, Syracuse University and Fordham University. Usually Fordham is a no brainer for finance but applied via Economics because I don't think I'm competitive enough for Gabelli. The other schools are all finance and the I haven't heard from Syracuse or Fordham yet but Pace and Iona admitted me and gave scholarships. Just wondering which schools are worth attending in order with the major I applied with. Really looking for Finance internship opportunity and post college placement in these schools. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
