Looking into applying to few MFA programs and currently lack the entire math background needed to apply. I have done Linear, Discrete, Calc 1 and 2, but didn't get Bs or above in all of them. I have a finance degree and comp sci minor from a top US public school, but my gpa was a 2.8. Would taking all the necessary math courses at a local NYC college and excelling in them be able to make up lost ground from my undergrad? Currently working as a data analyst at a consulting firm.
 
Oh sorry, MFE. Just a mistype.
To be honest with you, your math grades are lacking. If you took necessary courses and got A's in all of them, it would help your case for sure. How many years of work experience do you have?
