Lateral Uni move

Moved to Brisbane Australia last year, and I am about to complete my first year of a finance degree at Queensland University of Technology. After reading through some posts it seems like in Aus you really want to be in a GO8 Uni to have a higher chance of summer internships/alum networking. If my GPA stays at 6.5, would it be worth it to switch unis if my end goal is IB/infra PE? Any info would be appreciated
