Colleges For A "B Student"

I am looking into going to a great college after I graduate and I plan to major in architecture. Right not I have a cumulative GPA of around a 3.1, but I have junior and some of senior year to bring it up to at least a 3.3-3.4 ... hopefully. I've been looking on these forums for a few weeks now and haven't really seen many B students getting into architecture schools, many students with a 3.7 or above. So what I want to know is are there any colleges that a student with around a 3.0-3.4 GPA could get into for architecture? Thanks.

In my part of the country; Kansas, Kansas State, and Oklahoma State are all very good schools.

@yodelo, I HIGHLY doubt I could get into UChicago, let alone survive at that school, haha plus they don't offer architecture or civil engineering (my other option)

Again thanks for all the other suggestions, will definitely take these schools into consideration.
