Recruitment advice for a rising junior from a target

I am a rising junior at a Harvard/Wharton, working in Sales and Trading at a lower BB in NYC (Barclays, DB, UBS, CS), in a frat, GPA will likely be 3.7-3.85 after this semester. I would be very happy to sign GS/MS/JPM IBD for my junior summer. Should I turn down the return offer for next summer, should I receive one? Also, can I leverage my summer to get offers before OCR in the fall? Thanks.
