Lion fund / CFIG. I wouldn’t worry too much about it though and instead focus on enjoying your experience and getting good grades. Recruiting to IB from Columbia is pretty easy. You might not get GS / MS / EVR, but there is a spot for everyone.
If you are already focusing on getting into IB this early on, I would instead focus your time kn trying to skip IB and going straight to MF PE / HF. IBD can be your backup. With good grades and half decent networking, you can get interviews at MF PE / HF shops that take undergrads (Warburg, Blackstone, Point72, Bridgewater etc).
