Spring Internship/ Spring Job IB Help

Whats up guys.

I'm a rising junior at a non-target school in the Northeast currently interning at one of the Big4 firms in Valuation. I've enjoyed my time but I want to be doing more and I'm sure investment banking is what I want to be doing. Unfortunately for me, I didn't realize that until a couple of days ago.

I'm graduating early in the fall so I'll have my spring semester completely free. I was thinking that I might be able to make the switch to IB if I'm able to find a spring internship or a spring full-time role to apply for. I'm looking for advice on how to make the switch from valuation intern to investment banking intern/full-time, what kind of firms I should be looking at and any particular firms that I would have a higher chance at.

P.S. 3.8 GPA, Manager of our student investment fund and plenty of extracurriculars

Looking for advice/help
