How to Quit Summer Internship????

Hi, I'm currently in a "summer internship", where I'm actually expected to continue working during the school year (part time) and into next Summer. Of course, when I applied/interviewed I told the hiring manager that I would agree to do this, but the plan was always to quit end of summer, in preparation for IB recruitment. I now have a legitimate excuse since I've been offered a junior analyst role at a boutique IB during the school year.

I've never been in a position where I plan on formally resigning, so wanted to get some advice from anyone who has ever been in a similar position. FYI, I performed well during the summer, and want to burn as few bridges as possible so that I can have at least one referral for the future.

Any advice is appreciated, Thanks
