MIS Junior here. Should I graduate next May and start working or get my Masters in MIS and have 1 more internship? I have had two internships already (Business Analyst & QA/Automation Scripting) and I am interning in Cyber this summer at a Top 10 firm. Should I get my masters and try to intern with b4/MBB in cyber consulting or just graduate next May?

You have pretty rich experience! That seems sufficient to prepare you for graduation. However, if you're not pressed for time to graduate, your internship at Cyber may be considered one more weapon in your arsenal for when you decide to enter the workforce.

Normally I would say that work experience is more important than education, but in your case you've collected quite a bit of internship experience that should balance things out. I say go for the Masters - you'll be a very competitive candidate once you're done.
