I'm not sure if you've thought of this but you should apply to internships/co-ops while you're still an undergrad. If you have a summer break from school, a summer internship in Silicon Valley would give you the skills and experience that will make you appealing to future (post college) employers. Importantly, this will teach you how to work with others; I'm not sure how much experience you get with that from freelancing.
