Please help my friend...because I can't!!

<p>One of my close friends was rejected from the University of Michigan Ross b-school (for their BBA program). However, he still really wants to go into business and is still thinking about getting a MBA, obviously in the future. He wanted to know if he did a non-business major and worked in non-profit for a few years (which he wanted to do after graduation), could he then go back to school, get a MBA and then get a job in consulting? Or should he bite the bullet, and spend an extra semester/year to reapply and hopefully get in?</p>

<p>Any help would be appreciated because I had no idea what to tell him! Thanks!</p>

<p>He can get MBA after UG. The competition for top MBA programs is a lot stiffer than for BBA. So whether or not he can get into a top MBA program is questionable. However, getting a BBA from Ross doesn’t improve his chances of getting into a top MBA program.</p>
