I’m going to be the voice of dissension here and say it depends on how the rejection was worded. Some schools put you in a separate pile to be reviewed later for a secondary, especially if you’re a non-trad with old grades and then a big upward trend.
If you’re still taking classes you can send them an update when the semester is over if your gpa improves and they might take another look at you. This is what I was recommended to do by an associate dean at a school I applied to. You can show interest without seeming desperate or looking like a pest. Some schools like ongoing correspondence, some don’t.
