LSE Study Abroad?

I'm a rising sophomore at a non-target and I'm currently debating whether or not to study abroad at LSE my entire junior year (have to decide by October). I aim to break into IB and was conflicted over whether or not to do the program. I have an almost guaranteed spot but I have concerns over how it would affect my junior internship recruiting as I'm based in the U.S. Any comments and/or advice would be helpful. Thanks! 

 

Depending on the situation, LSE may let you take the finals remotely in the US (I know people who did this). It depends whether your university in the US is ok with that

 

I highly recommend the program! I don’t think anyone in my cohort regretted doing it and so many people from it work in IB now all around the world (but most in nyc). You learn a lot studying abroad and you’ll stand out to future employers because LSE is a top school and you’ll have experienced living in a different country

 

I know this is an old post but does study abroad uni reputation matter that much? or should I not worry about it and just pick based off of how much I like the city/program in terms of social life
