SUNY Albany vs. SUNY Stony Brook - Can't decide where to go for Finance & Accounting

<p>I have received all of my college acceptances/rejections from the colleges I applied to, and I have narrowed it down to two schools - SUNY Albany or SUNY Stony Brook.
My plan is to major in accounting and finance and get my cpa after finishing my undergrad. Most likely I will specialize in tax and take the path towards becoming a Tax Attorney. Which would need me to go to law school for a certain amount of time too.
But as of right now I cannot decide between these two schools. Either school that I go to, I will most likely transfer to SUNY Binghamton's Business School (given that I get accepted) after 1-2 years.
I am from Long Island and visited Stony Brook, so I have a good idea of how Stony is. But I have yet to visit Albany. </p>

<p>If you were wondering my SAT was 1780 and my ACT was 28. My GPA is 3.4 (88/100). </p>

<p>So my question is that which one of the schools should I pick?</p>

<p>Well, SUNY Albany is more of a liberal arts college while Stony brook is more into health professions, biological sciences, and engineering. I would think that SUNY Albany might have a stronger social science department. Besides, you should go live on campus! It’s a good experience to become independent. :)</p>
