Can SA offer be rescinded for low GPA/bad finance class grades?

hey all, knocking on wood for this post, but I currently have an IB SA offer at a BB for the 2024 summer and I was wondering if there's a possibility SA offers could be rescinded for a lowered GPA or bad grades in finance classes. 

right now, I am a 2nd-year at a non-target and I am not doing too hot in one of my corporate finance classes. I will have to retake it next Fall to keep on track as a Finance major at my college and my GPA is definitely going to be lowered to the ~3.5 range. When I was recruited, I had a 3.85. 

Is there a chance that this would be a cause for concern to the bank that offered me an SA position for next summer? Just wondering if I should continue recruiting/networking and keep connections hot in case (hopefully not) my offer gets rescinded because they think I am an actual idiot. 

Very much freaking out and super anxious about this :(   

Thanks in advance.
