Graduating Early

Currently a sophomore recruiting for IB SA27. Set to graduate a semester early in Fall 2027, but I have the ability to load up on classes and graduate a full year early in Spring 2027. Would it make sense to do this since I would likely have my summer internship set up by then. Also how would this change re-recruiting if I end up not getting a return offer; would it be any different recruiting as a student?
