Harvard vs. Wharton

I'm a HS Senior admitted to both Harvard and Wharton. I thought Harvard was the obvious choice, but now I'm having second thoughts. I'm 100% sure I want to pursue finance out of college. At Harvard, I'd major in Econ w a secondary in stat. I was looking through course offerings and only saw Capital Markets and Corporate Finance as finance related classes. I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on which school is best, and if Harvard can offer anything that Wharton can't in terms of finance. I know I can't go wrong with either school, but I'm looking for some extra info I can't find online. In terms of the culture/social scene/campus, I've visited both and they are both amazing.

For people that do go to Harvard and want to go to Wall Street, how do they go about learning the actual skills needed on the job? All advice is welcome.
