Sure - although if they have already flipped your offer to someone else, you may be out of luck depending how flexible the bank is. Some firms have relatively hard quotas on interns.
Get in touch with a dean or other official of your college, and have them draft an signed letter detailing why this is an administrative error as opposed to a question of your character. Just set up a meeting and explain the situation. They want to see their students do well.
Then find one of your interviewers who you really got along well with; email them, and explain the situation. Keep it simple, short, and ask for their help. The more senior; the better, as they can follow up with HR and see what the case is. Attach the letter or an official statement as proof.
Here is the more difficult part: it's a hard sell if someone emailed me about this. My immediate suspicion is that you have doctored transcripts and are trying to weasel out of it. If I'm going to put my word behind you at the firm I work for, I'm going to take the 5 minutes to call or verify with the school to make sure that I don't look like an idiot in front of HR.
Anyways, good luck and hope this sorts itself out for you.
Would you say it's be better to contact my recruiter if I have a good relationship with them as well? I have a meeting setup with my school and i'll ask them to do what you had suggested. I'm honestly quite worried since I had turned down 3 other banks for this and not sure what I'm going to do if it doesn't work out in my favour.
This is just weird. How does a school fuck that up? Administration has like one job, tell students their grades. (and shut down unruly frats)
