Low GPA, Out of Luck?

I have a low GPA (<2.0) in a non-target school in a science program finishing my second year. I'm transferring into a non-target business program that has some placement across firms.  I'm not sure how to speak on my low GPA because I may need to for internships in my 3rd or 4th year. I'm trying to work in business development or corporate finance positions (back-end CF). 

What should I be doing to improve my chances (courses on Coursera or Udemy? Certifications on Wallstreet Prep? Corporate Finance Institute?)  

Realistically, what are my odds?
