Step 1: Complete an Undergraduate Program
Students who are interested in becoming a radio DJ can enroll in an associate's or bachelor's degree program in communications or broadcast journalism. Students will take courses in radio announcing, speech, news reporting, broadcast writing and media research. Although associate degrees are offered, bachelor's degrees are necessary to be competitive even for entry-level jobs, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
Step 2: Do an Internship
Colleges and universities may offer students an opportunity to participate in an internship with a radio station. While an internship may not offer students a chance to get on air, they'll learn behind-the-scenes aspects of working at a radio station. This will also give them a chance to network and develop contacts in the industry.
Step 3: Get on the Air
Students may be able to find opportunities to get on the air with their campus radio station. College radio stations typically provide a hands-on environment where students may gain real-world experience. These stations often broadcast 24 hours a day, so students can get experience engaging both daytime and nighttime listeners. Students also learn about FCC rules, broadcasting law and ethics as well as personnel management and station programming while being provided with a chance to get on air.
Success Tip
Put together a reel. In order to obtain a job, prospective radio disc jockeys need a reel. Disc jockeys should edit reels of their best work to send to prospective employers. No matter the experience or education, radio stations will need to hear how a radio DJ sounds on the air and how they communicate with an audience.
Step 4: Hone Your Skills at a Small-Market Station
The BLS notes that radio DJs should get comfortable with their on-air personalities and build their reputation in smaller markets before moving on to larger-market stations. This gives radio DJs the opportunity to tailor their announcing style to better engage and retain an audience. Professionals in this field often need to relocate to larger markets to advance their careers. As such, larger studios typically put heavy emphasis on a radio DJ's ratings in smaller markets when deciding on who to hire.

No, it is not possible, because you are in 3rd year, not in 1st year, so, it is not possible. I only want to say forget about environment of your college, only believe in yourself and give 100% in your study.
