Depends on what college and what program your trying to get into.... You may have to take a test or additional classes.

You can get anything you want you just have to prove you can do it. Talk with as many professors as you can in your school of choice. Let them know the kind of person you are and what your capabilities are. Just speaking to them intelligently should be enough. People do know that things happen that you have no control over and that could explain your GPA. You could also explain it in your personal statement. Just be honest.
I am writing from personal experience. I had a GPA of 2.7. Things beyond my control, but I was accepted into all the schools I applied to for my Master's In Public Health and I did all I just listed above. I am aware that it is not similar to an MBA but it really all is a higher education.
The GPA-when it boils down to it-is really just a number. And the schools you attend-although they serve as an insurance policy-really do not determine your future. You do. The work you get after and how you prove yourself at your job goes a longer way.
All the best and I hope this helps you.

I have an MBA.
Sure you can one, if you score in the top 1% on the GMAT lol.
You can forget getting into a good business school. Most schools require a minimum of 3.0 and a decent GMAT score PLUS work experience. The competition is stiff and selection is top down.
You may be able to get into a second or third tier school, provided that you do well on the GMAT. Get a job for a few years and work hard to make your resume look good. They're looking for increasing responsibility on a resume.

Maybe...Prolly not..
Try retaking failed courses etc. Also try to conve you will get a lot more serious. If there was a reason e.g. your parents died, tell the school. If no, you were partying...then not many options.
Get a good GMAT score. Over 650 should show you shaped up. Tell about you problem as a challenge that you already overcome...not a weakness

sure, but the school might not be that great.
try taking classes one at a time to build a gpa before applying for admissions.
a friend of mine did that at university of chicago. he took classes as a student at large until he had enough credits and then he enrolled with a pretty good gpa (he wouldn't have been accepted any where else) he now has a pretty awesome job.
good luck

All the ones I've seen required a 3.0 (in grad school a 2.8 is failing)

If you apply yourself. You may have to retake some courses.
I'm sorry, but you spent four years in college and that's all you came away with? What a waste of time and money.

Not if you plan to party through the next two years.

Yikes, not too good.
If you aren't real picky about where you get in, and improve once you are in the graduate program, there is hope though.

Yes. Be sure to use "u" rather than "you" in your application. They like hip, young applicants.
