Planning to transfer from NYU to UNC for undergrad. Worth the move?

So I just finished up my freshman year at NYU in CAS, and wanted to transfer to UNC CH mainly for campus. I am planning to major in applied math and cs. Would I be missing out on any high finance opportunities specifically on S&T at banks, HFs, and Quant being t UNC. While I am not at Stern, NYU is generally well regarded and in the city, so networking and such. A lot of CAS kids do end up breaking into IB and stuff. I am also still into tech and startups so I am not sure what is the right move. I honestly didn't have the greatest time my freshman year here at NYU. Hoping for a more trad experience at UNC.
