Career Resources
There's not much you can do about your current internship other than making the most of it. If people leave at 4:30, stay later and take on additional work either from them or, ideally, see if you can e-mail some of the FO people and ask to help them out with whatever they need done. This accomplishes two things: you build connections with them making a FT lateral to the FO of your current bank possible and you gain decent experience that'll be helpful for FT recruiting.
Aside from that, network with as many people as possible at other banks that typically do FT recruiting to try and get a leg-up. I attended one of the schools you listed and did FT recruiting so PM me if you want a list of typical banks that'll come back to campus in a few months (on the off-chance we went to the same school).
Other than that, try to sharpen your technical skillset as best you can outside of work. You seem to have a lot of free time so build some models and do some research or something. Bottomline, be proactive. You still have a shot.
If you are a rising senior at a target, wouldn't there be some sort of opportunity to shoot for an off cycle internship in IB or ER?
