Well, first of all, don’t get an internship if you are only doing it for the college apps because the adcoms will see right through it. However, if you are sincerely interested in the interships then I think it would be a really great, valuable experience. And demonstrated interest refers to showing interest in the COLLEGE not the subject area that you hope to major in. So like go to college fairs and fill out a card at the WUSTL booth or visit the campus (probably hard since you’re international) or I bet even just called an asking the admissions office a few questions (though they should be thoughful legitamate questions) would help.
