Finding Finance Internships for Summer 2025 and 2026

Hello! I am a sophomore at a T-5 college with a pretty decent gpa (3.6). I have been struggling to land a single internship at top banking or consulting corporations. I applied to BCG, Mckinsey, MS, etc. and haven't even gotten past the hirevue for any of these. My resume is pretty strong, granted I did come from a medical environment, but I work at my school's business student led org and show major involvement in my resume. Is there any more I can do? any help please. I realize that networking is big, but confused how an email is supposed to land a referral unless I know the person,
