As far as Cal/UCLA/USC goes, I’d say:
Cal > UCLA > USC for investment banking, and you’ll probably only have a shot at SF banks (maybe some NY offices if you’re top notch at Cal).

For international, I’d say LSE > Oxford/Cambridge for IB in NYC, and based on people I’ve talked to in the industry all three are pretty well represented, but I have far less information in this field.

I don’t know of too many people who go straight from Germany UG to IB, but I have seen people go from Germany/other European UG -> European finance/IB -> top US MBA -> whatever you want in US.
