Okay so same situation took a college offer because a full ride everything paid for no alumni from the uni is in ib or s&t, very non-target 96% acceptance rate, was seeing do I still have a chance getting into ib or s&t if I network hard, keep a 3.7+ gpa, study technicals and get some finance internships my freshman year, do I still stand a chance of getting into s&t or ib?

Definitely going to be hard but never impossible. Really depends on how your networking goes
The odds are obviously greatly stacked against you. At the end of the day, when you make the decision to take the full-ride at a place that is perceived as less prestigious/worse than somewhere else, you choose the lower cost of going to college in lieu of a lot of potential career/life options. That isn't to say that it's impossible, but it would probably be easier to transfer to a better school than to recruit for a top IB role from your position.
