You aren’t necessarily guaranteed access to those labs. At those schools, it might actually only be MBA students who are allowed to use them. Either way, it’s doubtful that it will be a huge part of your college experience.

I think you’ve ruled out Penn State already because they won’t accept you, correct?

Regardless, I would definitely stay in-state for undergrad because it is so much cheaper. You can aim for Wharton for grad school if you find that it makes sense for you.

If I were in your shoes, my choices would be Berkeley, UCLA, SDSU in that order unless you got some aid somewhere that brought the price down.
