Graduate MFE Program for Business Majors?

Hi all - Was wondering if there were any MFE or graduate level math/CS programs out there for non-quantitative majors. Recently became interested in quant finance, but have no interest in going to get a second undergrad. I was a business major who performed well, but has superficial college level math experience (Calc 1/Stat 101 only). Have a strong resume with good GPA and great work experience (work as an IB Analyst). Decent test scores for SAT/GMAT.

Emphasis would be half academic/half placement (i.e. important to get a solid background, but just as important to get a solid job)

Looked around and found another thread mentioning UPenn MCIT and UChicago MPCS, but was hoping to find some that are for QuantFin.
 
Your math skills are no where sufficient to be admitted to a top Mfe profram. You have to take calc courses through ode/pde, probability, stochastic process, numerical analysis and optimization, inference, econometrics, 1 year of programming to be considered at any decent Mfe programs.

iB has nothing to do with quant finance. 0.
 
Wanted to bump this thread. What's the best way to obtain those requirements given if you have >6 years of working experience but not as many quant courses
