You have to plan in advance, but narrow down your list to places you can easily commute to (whether via your own transportation or public) and can afford to work (most internships are unpaid, but you might get lucky). Draft a formal letter asking that you are a finance student and are looking for experience, that you've researched the company and find X,Y,Z about the company thats interesting and seems compatible with your career ideals.
