Check out these tips - very good - from the Boston Globe: http://www.boston.com/jobs/galleries/internship_tips/
Also, for UMD students, I have a free booklet entitled: How to land an excellent internship which you can pick up at my office or I can send you a digital copy. I also have a published version for anyone else who would like to purchase a pocket book version: http://www.lulu.com/shop/michael-griffin/how-to-land-an-excellent-business-internship/paperback/product-20335071.html
