MA at UZH (Switzerland) or MBB Internship

Greetings to all Members of Wallstreetoasis!

I have been accepted for a summer internship at one of MBB in Southeastern Europe as an undergraduate. However due to COVID-19, i am still waiting for their official offer to me. Simultaneously, i have been accepted for a MA Business& Economics at UZH, Switzerland starting in September 2020. I have been in a dilemma..Which one to choose. I have been informed that the Summer Internship might start in September 2020 and not in June or July.

My thoughts are to pursue that internship and convert it to full-time, but in case it starts in September i will lose the Master in Zurich and not know the outcome of the internship. What are your thoughts here dear Members??

Respectfully yours.

Take the internship. It adds more to your experience than the MA. The point of the MA is to get experience down the line (unless your goal is academic in nature), which is what is being offered to you now.
