Timing of Junior year internships

Hi All,

I am entering my Junior year at a target school this upcoming school year. Currently, my GPA is quite low (3.2) but I know by the end of the first semester I will be able to get it up to a 3.5, which is the cut-off for most BBs. I am wondering when the IBanking applications/interview process actually takes place. Will I have time to finish the next semester and bump up my GPA or will they ask for my resume before the end of the semester?

Thanks ahead of time.

if you go to a target, you can just check with your career office/ocr calendar. for NY internships it's usually around Jan 15 (so yes, you'll have the new grades) but good luck raising a 3.2 after 4 semesters to a 3.5 after 5 semesters...are you planning on taking 8 classes and getting straight As?
