Junior year internship help

I am a sophomore at a non target school trying to get an internship for the summer of 2025. I have a 2.7 gpa and no finance club involvement, but after this semester I will have a 3.3. I have applied to about 130 internships around Philly and NYC, but have had no luck. A few interviews but no offers yet. I want to do wm or am, but at this point I’ll take anything.

Any advice on landing one? What’s the best strategy for networking to get one?
