From Valuations / TAS / CF to IB?

How likely can one move from CF/ ER/ RE/ Valuations/ TAS / AM directly to IB without an MBA?

I come from a liberal arts background so I’m looking into doing an MSF. I’m hoping to get into one of the roles mentioned above after my MSF then transition to IB without doing an MBA.

Thanks

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
