Transferring schools for a better Finance degree any advice helps

I am transferring to a state school that has a way better finance program than my liberal arts school now. I am transferring going into my 4th semester. I have had internships in management during the summer after my freshman year and have a marketing project with the same company this winter break. The company is a large privately owned company, and while I do enjoy working there, it is not the field I am looking for. I enjoy finance and want to work in investment banking. Any advice of what types of classes, internships, or anything else I should be aware of? Thank you in advance for sharing
