Too late?

I am entering my third year at a non-target state school and have so far lined up an internship this summer at the VC arm of a large tech company. I have a Strategy / Finance internship role lined up next semester at a Series C startup. Is it too late to begin to look at IB (initially was not aware/interested). Keep in mind my school does not really have placement at any BB (two alum currently at top 3 bb but recruited through diversity programs). Any advice or $.02 appreciated.
