UVA vs WashU StL vs Rice for college

High school senior deciding between UVA, WashU StL and Rice for undergrad. Planning on majoring in finance/philosophy and either going for IB or corporate law. Was wondering how much going to a target school (UVA) would give me an advantage over going to WashU or Rice. Any advice?
