Apartment Hunting + Job Hunting = NO FUN!!!

So, I have about 3 weeks to find an internship/job and a place to live for the summer. This has been a very frustrating and time-consuming process. I could go back to Michigan for the summer, but I'm almost 22 years old and, even though I love my family and love spending time with them, I really think it is time for me to grow up and find my own place. Part of me would like to stay on campus so that I don't have to move far, but it is a little more pricey. Another part of me would like to just rent a room from someone, but I really don't want to live with someone or a family I don't know and I also like to have my own space. Another thing is finding a roommate if I decide to get an apartment. Are they committed to staying the entire summer? I do not want to be left all of a sudden with rent to pay by myself. Will I be able to find a good enough paying job to pay the rent each month for an apartment or room? I would love to work for a nonprofit organization, but they do not pay any interns which means I would have to get a 2nd job and somehow have time  to do summer school as well. My resume is out to several places, but only one has called and it has been very difficult setting up an interview time with conflicting schedules. Can I find a place where I do not have to sign a lease so that I can move back on campus in August? UGH!!! So many questions and absolutely no answers! So, for anybody reading this, please pray that God will give me an answer soon!!!
