Any hope for transitioning from Audit to Consulting in Big4?

Hi everyone, just wondering if there's any hope for someone who's about to be an audit intern with a Big4 to transition to the strategy consulting arm? Since I have come from a completely different industry however have acted as a consultant in that industry, I have been doing a great deal of reading about MC and lurking here but just found out today that the intern opportunity was in Audit and accepted as I didn't want to turn down a Big4 opportunity (been wanting to transition out of my old industry for a while). I'm not in MBA yet however I'm open to it in the far future.

Tl;DR: What advice do you have for someone who really wants to shift to the consulting arm of Big4 from Audit? My previous experience was already sort of ready for transitioning to the consulting arm.

Thanks all!
