Cold Emailing this Late into the Recruiting Cycle

I reached out to a lot of bankers in the summer with a short and fairly broad email temple. Something along the line of: "I'm a X year student at X school and was interested in learning about your experience in investment banking. Would you be open to answering some of my questions over a cup of coffee?" I actually noticed a decent amount of success from this template. But my question now is I need an internship and there's only so much time till I'm fucked. So I was wondering how do I phrase an email where I ask the banker for a coffee chat but make my intentions of needing an internship clear, all without coming off too pushy?
