MSF Options

When I started uni (Canadian semi-target) my focus was on music so I picked English lit as it gave me the time to gig with my band and do mini-tours while plucking away at school. Since then I started focusing on school and after taking some econ and accounting classes became interested in finance.

Long story short, I am a year away from graduating and know that I want to pursue finance but I am not sure where to start. Ive got a 3.4 (I know very bad for a BA) but by the time I graduate ill have Calc 1 & 2 as well as linear algebra and statistics.

Where do I go from here? Do I have a shot at any decent Msfs? It seems like the ones in Canada require work experience is this the case in the US or the EU? What can I do to make my resume more attractive? Alternatively would I be better off going for a second undergrad?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated
