Next move advice

Short and to the point.
3.7 GPA - Finance major out of state school (non-target) - mid west
Internship experience included mergers and acquisitions analyst at a small cap specialty engineered materials corporation
Current role asset based lending valuations (i.e appraisals) for past 2 years.

Thoughts on starting the CFA program or going back to school either masters in finance or accounting.
Ultimately any career advice that a background like mine could be a good fit for would be appreciated.
