Thank you for the reply. It dropped .02 points and is 2.98 now but it says in the offer letter that the offer is valid only if I maintain a 3.0. Do you know how flexible HR is with that? I was hoping to submit last semester's transcript when my GPA was higher than 3.0 before talking to the hiring manager.

Well, tell you what and I hope this helps: my first internship required 3.0 gpa. Mine that semester was 2.98 (exactly like yours). Not only did I interview and get the internship, I have been with that company ever since 2013 and haven't had any performance review below "exceeded expectations" ever since I started.

Moral of the story is: the gpa will only be a big deal if you make it so. Your perception will be your reality and you will lose out on a fantastic opportunity to start your career on the right foot. Call your recruiter, make your case, have a great internship.

Side Note: I graduated with a 3.4. Had to work my butt off to raise it up and get the offer and I did.

talk to your recruiter, before you try to play smart, because if he ask you for the final gpa, and they you tell him, he might judge you as unfit on the ethical standards. which would be bad as well. just talk to the recruiter
