In any case, if you have an otherwise strong app and if you go in prepared and do well at everything else, I would be shocked if they didn't hire you.
Good Point,
I've never seen it published anywhere that a GPA below 3.0 would disqualify an applicant. I guess they could always adjust tha airline apps filter to omit certain applicant below a certain GPA, but only someone from the hiring department would know exactly.
Only thing I would tell you, be completely honest and upfront with your application. Attempting to hide or lie about anything will more than likely get you the ax.
