How to get an internship at a bank?

I like working with money, but unfortunately, I'm just now realizing it. I'm already 20 years old and I'm obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Political Science (3.7 GPA) at the University of Florida. Is there any way I can obtain a summer internship with a bank despite my major? I know many aim for investment banking but I'll do anything from corporate lending to commercial real estate. I just want to get my foot in the door into finance.
