Biology Major Looking to Get Into Business

I am currently a senior Bio major at UMass Amherst. I realized this summer after working in a hospital that I do not want to go into the medical field. My sophomore year I spent a lot of time day trading and long term trading and have had some success there and find it very interesting. Due to this, I know I want to switch to something business related but it is too late to get a business minor and I am a little lost on where I should go from here or how to try and get to where I want to be. I currently have a 3.7 GPA and have a few scholarships and awards so I have a very good academic record but have no idea how to get my foot in the door.
