The issue is going to be the timing. You'll finish up in August, and 2025 recruiting will be all but wrapped up by August, so you're kind of screwed if you aren't successful. This is not always the easiest switch either - intern "lateral" moves are always a challenge and at least in the past, BofA soph S&T offers were for both summers.
If I were you, just go external... put this on your resume and join the recruiting/networking that's about to kick off in earnest. With this on your resume you should have no problem getting a top offer. Why risk it waiting until the very end of recruiting season for something with a somewhat low chance?
Thanks for your input. I am def already planning to apply and hopefully lock an offer in IB for next summer. Not going to risk it.
Congratulations on BofA.
I did this at another BB. Show commitment to the bank and prepare good reasons on why would you be better at IB. It also doesn’t hurt to have a good relation with ur recruiter and network inside the bank with IB people that you meet through your sophomore internship. They can vouch for you with the IB recruiters .

Anyone have thoughts on internal movement from PWM internship to full time in IB or ER at one of said banks?
GS is not friendly to intern movement. The other two it can be done, but you're going to need a strong network rooting for you and ideally a prior IB/PE internship to show you have the technical skills (PWM is mostly a "soft skills" division)
