How can I break into IB as a CC student?

Currently a CC student in my freshman summer year with a 3.8 GPA. I will be applying to transfer this October to top universities. I've gotten an internship at a search fund so far. 

What other internships should I be applying to? What other skills should I be learning? I've had a few coffee chats in my network, but what else am I supposed to be doing to be able to break into IB? How does the process go for CC students?
