Help? My GPA is too low?

I just finished an early college program, and I’m currently at 54 credits entering college for the first time. However, this past semester I did not do well in my classes, and my GPA dropped to 2.8. Is there anyway I can improve my GPA? I heard that transfer students have their GPA reset, would that be the case for me as well? I’m attending the same college that I’ve been taking college classes at for the last 3-4 years (all throughout high school). I realized that I am not eligible for many scholarships because of my low GPA, and I don’t know what I should do. Thank you…
