SA advice

Hi guys looking for advice, went to a non target and recently transferred to a very solid semi target. I would be an incoming junior this fall but I am looking for advice to see if extending graduation is worth it for a solid offer vs recruiting FT. Still hustling this summer to get anything left, currently a sophomore summer corporate finance and FP+A intern. Good grades and extra curriculars related to volunteering if that matters. Long term goal is PE or fintech start up. Looking for good advice on paths to get there.
