What to do when arriving at a semi-target/target from a CC

I just transferred from a CC to Vandy for Econ fall 2018. I’ve been lurking on this site for about 2 years now and it has been extremely helpful with the transfer process. My question is what now? I know I have to do the obvious like being involved in campus and doing well in my courses, but is there anything I should do when I arrive on campus immediately to help build up my resume and my knowledge so I can land an internship for the summer of 2019? I am interested in both MBB and IB so either one would be a dream come true. I apologize if this seems like a duplicate.
