I really wish I had done an internship at an agency. I'm in non-profit now and wish I had more intense experience.

See, working in a non-profit was very beneficial for me. I had no agency experience previously, only print journalism experience, but at the non-profit I got to do a whole lot of different things, deal with both small and large media outlets, and do press/media releases of differing complexity. I think that, if I had stuck with PR, I would have been set up quite nicely to make the transition to an agency.
A big part of it may have been that my boss was great, in that she got me a lot of exposure, and gave me some really interesting projects.
