Please Help Me Decide! (UCI Biz Econ or UCR Biz Admin)

Hey guys and gals. Just wanted some advice on where to transfer to this year.

GPA: 3.61
Major: Business Admin (w/ accounting focus) from Irvine Valley College

I applied to UCI Business Admin but got accepted to my alternate (Biz Econ), I also got accepted into Business Admin at UCR and am being offered Honors along with it.

My dilemma is coming from choosing between which is better, I want to be in accounting/finance in the future so both programs seem like a good fit, UCI business school would have been the best :frowning:

I live in Irvine and prefer UCI over UCR, money is not an issue for me so living in UCR can work too.

What are your suggestions, is UCR’s business program well-respected (do the Big 4 hire equally as much from them as UCI). Or should I stick with UCI for biz econ and perhaps switch majors (highly-unlikely) or do an accounting minor.

Happy to hear from you guys, also I know a lot of people are on my boat so if you wanna chime in too feel free to :slight_smile:

I’ve been told Big 4 doesn’t recruit out of UCR. You should double check but I’d go biz Econ at UCI with acct minor.
