I know this thread is old, but I just came across it.

If you have bad stuff on your record, you can usually explain it away. If enough time has passed and you prove yourself with good grades, I don’t think they will look at the old stuff as much. Problem is, you’re not going to get into USC with a 2.9. There’s just about zero chance of that unless you’re really good at football. They turn down people with 3.8’s.

If you can’t get your GPA up to at least a 3.4-3.5 I would probably forget about it until grad school.
