UCLA
UMich Ross is a target. But first you need to get into regular UMich, then apply to Ross during your freshman year. IMO that should be your top choice.
If you're an international student (judging by your grammar, I hope you are), make sure your grades are ~top 20% and that you know your shit; otherwise you'll have to apply to middle-market and smaller firms, and most of them don't hire internationals.
After Ross, obvious choice is UCLA.
?
Could I just ask one thing, as a high schooler how did you find out about this site?
Michigan > UCLA > Georgia Tech
If you do well you should have a decent chance of being able to transfer to an ivy from Michigan or UCLA.

UMich is a great school and BB firms do recruit heavily from the school's students. I'm pretty sure getting into the busness school is gonna be competitive as hell though. The competition among college students nowadays is insane given how many more candidates apply each year (to the school itself and moreso the b-school). If you're confident enough that you can work your balls off and get in after freshmen year by all means do it. If you plan on transferring to a target Ivy, it will not look bad to banks so don't worry about that.
But dude... how dope would it be to go to college in LA?

Yea Ross is your best choice by far.
Otherwise, I am not sure how UCLA does on the west coast but never had any UCLA students in my Superdays in Chicago or NYC. I met 5-6 Case Western students in my Superdays with BB and MM prestigious firms so they are obviously pretty decent. And GT is legit, just haven't seen much of them. Very good school for anything typically.
UCLA does very well on the west coast. A strong alumni presence in SF and of course even better in LA. Also, UCLA will be respected enough by the Ivy League schools that a transfer out will be feasible given the right grades.
I would go with what people have been saying here: Take UMich if you can get, if not take UCLA for sure.
I've never even heard of Case Western btw, but that could very well just be a lack of regional knowledge.

Michigan (Ross) has a wealth of career resources for undergrads and alumni. Michigan (Ross) dose not carry the prestige of Harvard or Yale, however it is considered a top business school year in and year out. Graduating from Michigan with a high GPA and other campus involvement will make you a valuable asset to hiring managers. The tradition of top financial firms on the street only looking at ivy-league applicants will decline steadily. Firms are working on diversification plans and I have already seen the top banks recruiting at Indiana, Purdue and Wisconsin.
In summary while at Michigan try not to only think "oh i'll be out of here in two years time to move up to the ivy. Try to benefit some pros and cons of this and get inside feedback from HR regarding the "ivy leaguers only policy"
Hope that helped, just a few thoughts
