Internship Help

Hello,

I am a sophomore at a big state school in the South who is working on a finance major with a leadership studies minor. I am currently trying to find an internship for the Summer of 2017.

Unfortunately, my GPA is currently low. I started as a biology/pre-med major and took a year of hard classes. This ruined my GPA for my freshman year, although I've been working hard to bring it up to a respectable level this year.

I know it is a long shot, but does anyone have any investment banking or corporate finance internships that they could recommend for someone in my position? My GPA is low but I have a variety of extracurricular activities on my resume including an executive position in a business organization and two leadership positions in my professional business fraternity.
