If your overall GPA blows, you can put on your resume your "major coursework GPA" - that is, only the classes in your psych/social work major. Don't make a big deal over the GPA - it doesn't mean shit in the real world. Remember: you're not trying to get the internship; you're only trying to get the INTERVIEW. Great friend? Rollerskating? Love babies dressed as monkeys? Put it in the coverletter. Employers don't give a shit if you won a meaningless award or you got an A on the history final. They want people to work for them. Make yourself human. Think about your favorite book. You love the author because of the way they expressed themselves in the words. Make someone love you through words--they will want to meet you. Once they meet you, they will give you the internship, because your vibrant monkey baby loving cute personality will come across. And also, ahem, the fact that you work hard, psychology expert, blah blah blah. You don't have to be an expert. You just have to be honest.
