Internship worth losing connections?

Currently, I have an internship offer from BofA in their consumer side risk department. However, it is hinging on whether or not I graduate in 2014 (which I will likely not).

For next year, I would like to get a SA position in a S&T division of a firm. So my question is, is it worth taking the internship to have on my resume for next year - but likely losing BofA as someone to employ me. The reason I would not graduate is to stay an extra year to pick up my business degree in addition to an economics degree. Additional information - there is an ok chance that I get something else related to finance, but very doubtful I get one equivalent to BofA.
