Northwestern SPS Investment Banking chances?

I would like to appreciate each and everyone one of you that can give me the right advice. I just recently got accepted into Northwestern University School of Professional Studies (SPS). Based on the conversation I had with my adviser, I would have all access to career fairs that happen on campus in Evanston, and it seems possible to secure an internship at a big bank. The real question is...How do these banks view students from the traditional school versus the part-time school in Chicago? SPS is a part of Northwestern. However, I did notice a difference in degrees:

SPS offers:

Bachelor of Philosophy Bachelor of Science in General Studies with a major in Economics ------ My major

Evanston campus:

Bachelor of Arts with a major in Economics

Does the word "General Studies" impact you at all?

Once again, I would appreciate all your thoughts on this

Thanks!
