Best path for International Business or Finance/Banking in California?

Hi guys!

What are some really good Finance/Banking or International business schools in California (undergraduate.) After I complete my four-year, I am planning to get a masters. My grades are that great... 1650 SAT, 3.5 GPA. I'm retaking the SAT, but all that aside. What are really good schools? The colleges don't have to have them as majors, but I just want to know what's the best track for these careers.

Thanks!

Looking at
UCSD
UC Berkeley
UCD
UCSB
Cal Poly SLO
Cal State Fullerton

USC has a good business program, but you'd definitely need to raise that SAT score unless you have some really major hook.

The closest thing to that at UCSD is economics. I cannot speak first had as to their quality in that department though i do hear that it is good. I know that their engineering school is great which might attest for the mathematics side of the econ program.

UCSD does offer an MBA if that helps.

In teh UC system UCSD Economics would be behind only UCB for quality of faculty some very well known people there. Best professors teach graduate almost exclusively.
