Is this good enough to get into my school?

I currently attend the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

I'm a Senior graduating this year with a Bachelor's of Science in Business Administration.
Undergraduate GPA is 3.4.

The program I'm trying to get into is The University of North Carolina at Greensboro Master's of Information Systems and Management.

I have 4 recommendations from professors from my school in the Business Department, and 1 from a previous employer of an internship.

I took the GMAT with no preparation (I work full-time as a waiter and take 7 senior level courses consequentially online).

My scores on the GMAT was 460, with a 28Q 20% and 25V, 36%, however got a 6.0 on the Analytical Writing in 90% and a 67% in the Integrated Reasoning.

Obviously I'm not trying to get into a top business school, however would this be sufficient in getting admitted into my school program? They provide an evening program for me and it matches my schedule great.

I know re-taking the test doesn't hurt but I don't have a spare $250 laying around to fish out again.

Since you're already a current student, can you walk into admissions and ask to talk to someone for an evaluation from them? Your GMAT is very low, so that might be a problem...
