Freshman who hasn't landed any internships yet

I have a 4.0 in computer science and mathematics from a top 20 school. Pretty much every bank I have applied to has rejected me. What kinds of internships can I still apply for that will get me a decent shot at a BB next summer?

 

Banks rarely take sophomores let alone freshman. Just take anything you can get this summer. In 15 months when you apply for your junior internship you can stress, but for now just enjoy school and keep learning.
