Which would you choose? Why? Factoring in job prospects, environment, reputation, student life…
UVA allows you to major in Economics with a concentration on Finance through the College of Arts and Sciences, or you can try to transfer into the McIntire School of Commerce and pursue Finance or Quantitative Finance there.
At UCLA you could major in economics.
Both schools have a great reputation, student life, experience. The weather will be different - UVA has the four seasons.
For an international student, transportation-wise, Charlottesville might be harder to get to than UCLA?
Both are wonderful schools and you should have strong job prospects graduating from either institution.
