The average person with a Masters degree has an IQ of 117.
Your IQ is more than adequate to get a Master’s Degree. In fact, with an IQ of 130, you could get any sort of doctorate, an MD, a PharmD, a DDS, and LD, a veterinary degree, or even the hardest one of all, a PhD.
The average person with a Bachelors has a 113 IQ.
The average person with a Masters has a 117 IQ.
The average person with a Doctorate has a 125 IQ.
Once you get 10–15 IQ (call it 13 points) points below the average for the degree, you are going to have serious problems obtaining that degree.
With a ≤100 IQ, you will have a hard time even getting a BA.
Certainly with a ≤105 IQ, a Masters would be quite difficult to achieve.
With a ≤112 IQ, you will have a hard time getting an MD.
