Non-target Sophomore Internships

I'm a sophomore at a very non-target and am looking to get some sort of experience in finance this summer. I don't qualify for "diversity internships" but I have applied for a handful of internships with some of the top buckets next summer (2020). As a sophomore what is my best course of action? Look for a boutique near me? Seek out corporate finance internships? Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks
