How to secure sponsorships and SA internships as an international student at Wharton?

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to drop in and share some thoughts as an international student as a freshman at Wharton, specifically in the Huntsman Program. I'm feeling a bit anxious about the whole job recruiting experience and finding sponsorship from banks. How hard is it to get sponsorship and get SA internships as an international coming from a target and how can I maximise my chances? Just worried about it considering the insane costs of studying abroad. 

Appreciate any insights or advice you all might have! Thanks in advance!
