Mallardchaser hit the nail on the head talking about the GPA. I graduated with a 2.5, so what. Very few employers are worried about GPA's with your degree. Whoever you get on with, sell out to the company completely for the first year. Kick ass and do your job.(don't kiss any ass though)

Congrats GH22. Just my two cents worth, but, go on to grad school if you intend to do so. I intended to go when I got my undergrad in December of '89. A wife, three kids, and almost 13 years later and I still haven't done it. It's easier now than when "life happens" as the song on the radio says.
Studying never stops. Can't tell you the number of seminars and bank schools I've been to.
You might consider offering to start at a "lesser job" when looking. That's what I did when I got out and it was the best thing to happen to this kid who thought he knew it all and had the world by the tail. I realized those "lesser jobs" get very little respect, deal with the bulk of the hassle, and or the backbone of any organization. Eventually, you will have their respect as well because you "have walked the walk and not just talked the talk."
Good luck.
