Transfer Student Messed Up..any help?

I recently transferred last semester from a non-target to a target and didn't get a very high GPA..all B's when I really needed at least a 3.5 to be competitive for summer analyst recruiting which is going on right now. I feel it's even a waste to continue here, and don't know what to do. Knowing that I wasn't doing that well last semester, I contacted another school I was admitted to but turned down (target as well) and they agreed to let me in for the spring semester, without housing though. I'm tempted to jump ship after only one semester here (I'm a junior right now, and no, I cannot extend graduation at this current school). I don't really know if it's a good idea, though. Yes, it will wipe my GPA, but I will effectively be in college for 5.5 yrs if I do that!! Any advice is appreciated. Is the GPA reset worth another transfer? Thanks guys.
