Am I screwed for 2020 internships??

So I’m currently a rising junior at a nontarget but top 20 school (think Emory, rice etc) with a 3.4 gpa (I know not the best). I am a girl and Hispanic but just recently decided banking is what I wanted to do for sure and missed the diversity recruiting cycle and feel screwed. I know a lot of people who have offers and interviewed in the spring even non diversity candidates. I’m not looking at any BBs more just good middle market firms and I know a lot of them will finish up recruiting at the end of the summer. I’ve been networking like crazy this past month and have a few contacts but not enough to get me interviews. I’m freaked out and don’t know what to do. Does anyone have any advice? Do I have a chance of still getting a decent banking job?
