Is it very likely, no, but if you don't make the effort at all, you are guaranteed to get nothing. Your best bet is to search around for boutiques, both consulting and banking (who cares if one doesn't like to accept fall interns as much, it doesn't take much to give it a shot), and just start reaching out. Many boutiques will have email addresses and phone numbers online - use them. Put together a quick introductory email to introduce yourself, your interest in the firm and industry, and your interest in learning more about any potential need/any potential opportunities for an intern this fall semester - they should see from the school that you are local, and that it is an easy way to get some help if they may need it. Be proactive and let them know that you will call them in the next day or so (assuming a phone number is online) to make sure they received the email, and discuss the firm/any opps/your resume/etc. Does it work all the time - absolutely not, but it's worth a shot, and outside of getting lucky and seeing a position on Craigslist, efinancialcareers, or your career site (which you should check out for specific opps), this is your best bet (assuming you don't have several industry contacts).
