Stay an extra year or pursue MSF?

Hello, I currently am attending a non-target with some presence on wall street. My question is should I stay an extra year to complete finance along with another major/2 minors or should I graduate and then pursue an MSF from a target/top semi-target cycle? Both would give me the option to do another summer of an internship but am not sure which one to pursue. Thanks.
