MSF worth it?

I’m a recent grad of an Ivy, majored in CS, but I’m interested in finance. I didn’t have finance coursework or internships undergrad (except one financial accounting class) so I’m considering a Masters in Finance. How worth it would this be? Is it very difficult? Would my chance of breaking into FO finance analyst jobs be significantly better afterwards? Thanks.
