two points that I'm sure you'll find in other posts as well:
1) GPA doesn't mean anything if you've got 3+ years of relevant work experience. If you don't, then GPA can make a difference. Two resumes with no work experience. 1 has a 2.01GPA and one has a 3.85, who do you go with? *shrugs*
2) Grad school. If you want go to grad school the lowest accepted GPA I've seen, which required a waiver, (I'm researching grad school now) is 2.8 & most are 3.0 or 3.2
If you have work experience already and you have no intention of grad school ... college is an end sum pass/fail system. 2.01 will get you your degree.
