Possible to break into I-banking with liberal arts degree + masters in information technology?

Hi all, I recently graduated from a top-3 public university with a 3.4 (3.35 to be exact) and a liberal arts degree. With a lot of luck, I managed to get accepted into a top-2 ranked Computer Science program for my masters in information technology (focusing on ebusiness technologies). I do not have any internships in investment banking but by the time my masters would end (1 year program) I would have worked on 16 different projects (some dealing directly with finance) and would have spent the summer working for a top tech company. I know my ugrad GPA isn't too hot but my understanding is that I can omit that GPA and list only my masters GPA if it is significantly higher.

I was wondering if you guys have advice on how to break into I-banking with this sort of background or if its not worth it?
