Extremely low cGPA and sGPA, what should I do? (east coast)

My question is in the title itself: I did not do well throughout undergrad due to unaddressed mental health issues which led me to lose motivation very frequently. I'll be graduating spring of 2027, and at the moment my cGPA is a 2.5, and my sGPA is a 2.1. The PA career has been my goal since high school....I know I have to retake courses, but even then, I'll barely make it over the minimum requirement regarding GPA. I do have real-world experience, such as 3 years of being an ophthalmic technician, and I'm currently working as a TMS technician. I don't know what else I'd do if not PA...

Advice for grad school admissions for someone with a very low GPA?

I’m a rising senior in undergrad and I’ve had several hurdles throughout my college career. I’ve been doing better, but still haven’t had strictly all As or Bs since I started improving, which was Fall of 2025.

My cum GPA is a 2.4 at the moment, and I’ll be majoring in psychology with a minor in cog sci. My major GPA is much better, a 3.3 I believe. I’m looking to pursue graduate school, particularly programs in the field of health and medicine, and I aspire to have a good career, I always have. I can’t accept not working a good job or not pursuing a graduate degree because of how I did in undergrad. Any advice would help, regarding what next steps I should take, who I should talk to, etc.

Thank you.
