Is Large MF out of Undergrad Still Possible for me?

I am interning at a small/mid-size mutual fund (~20B) in their research division this summer. I have started reaching out to the few alumni at my school that work at large mutual funds (I go to a non-target, so there aren't too many). I was just wondering what your opinions are on my prospects for transitioning to a larger mutual fund out of undergrad and if it is even possible given the current environment. If you think it is possible for me, what course of action should I take in addition to networking with people from those firms? Thanks for your help.
