MSc Finance RSM - Chances of breaking into London IB

I am a 22 year old Spanish male and I've been admitted to MSc Finance and Investments at RSM and I wanted to know what are my chances to land a M&A summer internship in London with this master program. I've studied Business and Law and I have no relevant experience, just a commercial banking internship (that is the main reason why I am pursuing a masters).  I know RSM is a semi target and a few people go to London every year, but they are usually Dutch and I would like to know if it's possible to break into London IB if you are not Dutch.

Hey, yes of course you can. Plently at Goldman Sachs for instance or JP Morgan (just do a quick linkedin search) :) However, like with every school not only RSM, your internships will help greatly. Even more than just the school ;) Good luck!!!

 

Was it difficult to land that 1st IB internship? My undergrad grades are not the best, just good enough to get into the program.
