Non-Target 3.4 GPA Chances?

I am a sophomore girl at a non-target on the west coast and was wondering my chances with such a low GPA. I definitely have my reason for why my grades tanked, but any advice on how to overcome getting screened out from most banks? I completed an IB internship this past fall at a nearby boutique and am part of various finance clubs on campus. Anyone whose successfully gone through this process with such a low GPA?
