I would use indeed.com and Craigslist (be careful of shady listings, do your research) and apply to whatever internships you're interested in.
You don't need to mention your college is online, unless you're asked.
Do you have any local universities near you that host career fairs? I would attend one of those if you could. Recruiters review those resumes directly.
Best of luck with the search!
Thank you! I was thinking to take some classes at TESU, I know it will be a bit expensive, but if I can get something out of it, I will do it. I was thinking to take a class in my AOS, like programming language or system design or something similar, this way I will have a GPA and a professors recommendation but is it enough? since again the class IS online and I would not speak to the professor in person.
As for career fairs, I gotta find out, I live in California and theres UCLA here and other CalState universities, but they are kind of one of the best in the country, so how will I compare to people who study there...

Perhaps take a class locally, and get to know the professor, for a recommendation. Also, you may be able to get a work study job through the local school.
Also, getting an IT certification can help, however, some of the certifications are too common to be a big help.
Do you know if Community College is good enough? I don't really know if I can actually take a class in the university...
