I think they'll lower it...if you are to graduate in 3 years that means you'll have to take summer classes, which = no summer internship which means you get screwed.

I should know I changed my major mid way thru my studies and had to catch up

 

^^ not neccesarily..I can graduate in 3 years easily because i had advanced standing when i came in as a freshman...so i can just overload 2-3 courses and graduate in 3 years....but i would actually assume that the lack of internship wont be because of summer classes but because banks ask students who are (usually) going to end their 3rd year to apply for internships..and it will be tedious to explain the whole advanced credit situation..

Yeah im in the same boat. I have advance standing so that I can graduate in 3 years but I think it would be better to double major and gradudate in 4 years.
 

But I actually stayed my 4 years and I am just going to graduate with 2 Degrees and a Minor, and also the time helped me with getting quality internships. So, I would recommend if you are not in an Ivy League do your 4 years, it can only help.
