This is essentially how it worked for me, too. I had a 2.92 overall GPA but showed them a 3.6 GPA in my major, and was provisionally admitted (based mostly on my letters of reference and work experience). It seems admissions and department heads have quite a bit of flexibility if you can convince them to apply it. :)
