Master in Finance with a science degree?

Is it possible to get into a top Masters in Finance program with a biology degree from a top 25 school on the west coast ? I am not talking about the more highly math intensive ones like at princeton.I am looking for a program that would help guide me for the CFA. I am currently doing an ER internship, and will be graduating next year. I want to go get my masters right away after. What program, if any, would be applicable to me.

My goal is to go from ER to a Hedge fund. Some of the people I have talked to have told me that another option that would be help in eventually getting to a fund is to get a higher science degree. How common is that?

Thanks guys
