Getting into IB/PE

This is my first post and just looking to get some advice. I’m currently in a non target university (as I decided a good experience is worth a not as great degree) but am going to be applying to LSE, UCL and a few other target universities for a masters, will this have a serious effect on my future job opportunities or will the masters be enough? many thanks.
