Are my chances in IB over?

Hey guys, First let me start off by giving a little bit of background I am a junior finance major at a non-target school in the southeast. I am graduating a year early therefore I missed out on the recruiting cycle for this year‘s summer internships and it’s not looking good that I’ll be able to land an internship. I was wondering if this would probably preclude me from being able to get an IB offer for when I graduate next May. I have a 3.9 GPA along with some decent extracurriculars and I have had a job since freshman year of high school that I’ve worked at but no finance related experience. Some guidance would really be appreciated. Thanks.
