Hi!
Looking at your profile, I see your ACT score is strong. You definitely have experience in finance, leadership and work experience. BPA national's qualifier stands out! However, your GPA is the only issue. Try your best to get your stats up by fall term of your senior year.
I came up with a few options:
Target/Matches: South Carolina, Alabama, Temple, De Paul, University of Cincinnati, Drexel
Safeties: Western Michigan, Georgia State
I hope this helps, but this is only what I found and researched. I highly recommend Temple and De Paul for your major! You can find more information on their official website.
You have strong ECs that make you stand out and your ACT score is great. This will definitely make you stand out.
Good luck!

Thank you so much! I will look into those. My target right now is the university of iowa, And collegevine says it’s a safety but i’m not sure
