Freshman internship?

Hi! 

I am a current freshman at an Ivy League, and I am hoping to get an internship in finance or consulting. However, essentially all companies at my school's career fair only accepted applications from sophomores and juniors, and I'm not sure exactly where to start looking. Any advice would be much appreciated!
 

Thanks! :)
