You can get into a master's program, but if you have not taken enough of the right undergraduate mathematics courses, then they will want you to make those up before taking graduate mathematics courses.
To get prepared for graduate courses in mathematics, many univeristies will want to see that you have completed three semesters of calculus, a semester of linear algebra and a semester of advanced calculus. It helps if you have had more (an extra semester of advanced calculus).
If you are interested in mathematics eduaction, the requirements may not be as great.
If you are emphasizing applied mathematics, a semester of undergraduate differential equations helps.
I got into a good master's program in math without a BS in math (my degree was in economics). But before I applied I took all of the courses I mentioned to you above, plus courses in number theory, mathematical statistics, probability, linear programming, abstract algebra, and graduate linear algebra. Even then, some of the graduate courses were not easy.

One general technique you could follow is... 1. First get to know the story of things, why it was discovered? Who discovered it? What is the importance of it in real world? and so on. 2. Try to understand the concepts and develop it yourself. 3. Understand the definitons and restrictions. 4*. Try to imagine. * : This is very crucial step, once you start imagining about the mathematical objects then you should eventually led into wrong perceptions, this not bad, once you have new ideas apply Step 2 and 3, then only things will get clear. Once you have mastered these steps, you can really became a good student / master thereof.

Yes you can get a master's in almost whatever you want. You just have to take leveler courses which will add more time possibly an extra year to the masters but given your undergraduate background certain leveler classes can be waived.

Why don't you check with the College you plan to attend and find out the correct answer for yourself. I am shaking my head in disbelief at a question like this.

it's up to the school, but it is likely that you would have to go back & pick-up some additional math courses

of course you are, you will just have to take the necessary courses for that degree.
