Journalism major necessary for journalism internships? Plus, extracurriculars

hey! i’m currently a student studying journalism and writing for my school’s daily newspaper (my school has a pretty famous journalism program + paper). however, i feel like im not being challenged or learning anything. Instead, I want to start freelance writing for a well-known publication for experience and perhaps major in something like philosophy and computer science, but im hesitant – what do reporting internship recruiters look for in resumes? do you have to work at a daily newspaper to qualify?
