best schools for international relations?

I am currently a high school student with roughly a 3.4 GPA, I have a few college credits done but have decided to attend my local community college for the next two years instead of going straight into a university. I know I can do very well in CC if I genuinely try, I slacked off mostly in high school due to personal issues. If after two years of CC and receiving a good GPA what schools would I be able to transfer to with a good international relations program that would also allow me to have opportunities such as internships? I’m aware a lot of the top schools are very difficult but i know I have the ability to do it.
Thank you in advance!

BYU has a lot of connections with IR and their program is good. The school is also super cheap but it’s religious.

What sort of jobs IR graduates can have a shot at if they don’t get into foreign service? Is IR a lucrative major for average students? Should you get a masters before going to work force or after a few years? Which schools are best for masters in IR?
