Freshman Summer

I'm entering my freshman year summer with a Search fund internship, and I've read that this is enough. But some 2023 SA are already open and are accepting application from the graduating class of 2025, my year. Should I wait to apply to these programs when my resumé is more filled and I've done more networking, or just apply now since I don't know when they'll close?Also for the summer I'm planning on studying for the SIE 63, WSO modeling courses, and picking up Python or VBA… any other recommendations?
