Graduating undergrad soon, early input on profile for potential MBA?

In my 4th year of school and am starting full-time in 2019, but wanted to get an early idea of what business schools my profile might warrant if I pursue an MBA in the future. Thanks for all the help.

Personal: * Hispanic, first-gen, male

Undergrad/grad school: * Accounting major at large Texas public school (3.84 Cumulative, 3.89 Accounting GPA) * Completed graduate degree in Finance through school's 5-year accounting program (in order to get 150 hours to sit for the CPA) (traditionally 5 years but will complete in 4 years because of extra credits and such) (Gradudate GPA TBD but should be good) * President of school's chapter of a nationally-recognized, minority-focused professional org (~100 members) * A founding officer of a pro-bono, student-run consulting organization * Coached a youth basketball team for a semester * A couple of other orgs, high-impact/select programs, Business honors etc.

"Professional:" * Internship: Big 4 firm, an advisory group, Texas * Internship: BB SA, Corporate Banking/LevFin, Midwest * Full-time (starting next summer): BB Analyst, Corporate Banking/LevFin, Midwest

Certifications: * Will likely take the CPA exam (don't know what the future holds, maybe want to return to accounting who knows) * Will take Series 6 & 63 during training next year

Future: Unsure after my analyst rotation. Continuing on in the bank as an associate, or PE is a viable option, maybe at a MM shop or something. Corp Fin... keeping a very open mind as far as job and city for a while... Thanks again all.
