2 Year Dual Degree Graduate

Hello, I'm studying at non target school near NYC, studying Finance (Fintech) and Economics (Data Analysis). I graduated HS in 2022, and am on pace to graduate with both degrees end of this year (December 2024). I haven't gotten any internships yet cause I looked later than I thought was needed (I was told by many to start looking in the beginning of the year...versus last year when most finance institutions are looking then). 

I've been thinking "Have I screwed myself by finishing college too soon" without getting internships. I thought finishing college through previous HS credits, summer/winter classes, and higher course loads would've been more impressive...so I never got vital internships my freshman summer nor my current junior upcoming summer. 

Any opinions? I always say I'm looking to go into a "financial analyst" or "data analyst" role, but I haven't sorted out more specifics.
