I fucked up hard in my first year of university, and almost failed out. I was dealing with some mental health problems and family issues, so the University cut me some slack and gave me a second chance. 2nd year I was able to get my GPA above passing, and it was like a 2.3 at the end of the summer. Junior year I stopped fucking around and I got a 4.0, and now senior year is coming up and I plan to do the same. But even if I get a 4.0, my cumulative GPA is only going to be at like a 3.2. Are employers or grad school admissions boards going to cut me some slack if my academic issues were all within the first 3 semesters?

Employers don't care about your grades, never list them on a resume period. They just want to know if you passed or failed. Grad school applications are a whole nother ballgame and tend to require graduating a bachelor degree program with honors, if you are dead set on grad school you will need to go to a smaller local university for your masters.
