No return offer, can I still get a signing bonus at another bank?

The title pretty much says it all, I interned at a bank this summer and didn't get a return offer.  If I'm able to catch on at another bank for next year, would they provide me a signing bonus?  I'm just trying to figure out my cash flow situation this year (see whether I need to take out some more loans).

You didn’t receive an offer, and you’re worried about a signing bonus at the next place? Aren’t you worried about not getting a gig at the next place….?
