You're talking about BU MAMS? I think their website said that they usually don't accept people without below a 3.0, but that they do make exceptions to the rule. I would definately apply, because if you are a good applicant otherwise you probably have a good shot.

I would look into other programs as well. But I wouldn't not apply because you don't think you're competitive. These programs don't really list average GPAs of accepted students (tell me if I am wrong), so it's hard to make assumptions either way.
