Explaining CV gaps

Hi,

I'm starting a off-cycle internship at a BB bank in IBD and in order to do so, I am dropping out (temporary withdrawal which is likely to be permanent) of my masters.
The truth is I can't afford tuition fees to finish my masters and it's likely I'll have a FT offer at the end of my internship. That leaves little scope to come back and complete my studies and starting work is of a far higher priority.

My bank doesn't care ... but will this be a negative if I were to end up going elsewhere in 1/2/3 years? Particularly the gap of X months on my CV.
