It's not exactly clear what job the OP thinks he wants, but public accounting isn't the way to any of them.

Find out who the actual hiring managers are in addition to the recruiters. Then hound them all mercilessly until they agree to grant you an interview just to get you off their back.

Come up with a better reason your GPA sucks. Everyone has commitments, but still manages to do their job. Unless you happen to interview with someone who's into it, they don't want someone who says, "well I really want to be a banker but I wasn't preparing myself as adequately as possible because I spent my study time in a rowboat."

Play up your internship, play down the school and have a good reason for why you went there.
