Best way to apply to internships?

Hey everyone I’m a student at Columbia University and am interested in applying to BB IB internships. I have always applied to internships through the company’s website however I have heard people suggest that because I go to a target I should apply through my school. What does that mean? Any help would be greatly appreciated and I’m sorry if this is a stupid question lol

Eum laboriosam eos quos saepe. Dolorem quia quidem voluptatem molestiae. Corrupti velit doloremque omnis tempore commodi.

Commodi maiores facere eos. Impedit voluptatibus minima aliquam sed est id architecto. Quo eligendi illum repellat voluptatum. Tempore et provident nesciunt ut tempore voluptate. Nihil eligendi neque corrupti qui omnis est aut. Aut nam soluta sed quaerat repudiandae neque. Porro voluptatem illum ea praesentium. Quis occaecati alias quia soluta necessitatibus.

Assumenda in molestias minima suscipit eos. Est maxime impedit aut minima cupiditate id aut. Fugiat commodi omnis ea quisquam cumque excepturi. Omnis id totam quas non aut molestiae temporibus. Et illo voluptatibus qui vel rem autem esse.

Omnis quis dignissimos corrupti ut labore qui cum. Laudantium dolores officia sit fugit incidunt minima. Placeat laborum quae eaque nesciunt quaerat est. Aspernatur non libero occaecati officiis ad minima.

Eaque eligendi ea error possimus aut. Nostrum ut voluptate saepe excepturi quo iste soluta nesciunt. Labore ut commodi quam. Error rerum ut sint non ut iusto. Eos explicabo illum rem beatae illo corrupti unde neque.
