Second Bachelors Degree??

I am a student who has went through all of college. I have a bachelors and an MBA from California University of Pennsylvania My bachelors GPA was a 2.83 and my Masters was a 3.3. Im not at all thrilled with my undergrad gpa or my maijor, even my school but my mind was not right back than and I went through a lot of personal hardships with family and life issues. I was a mediocre high school student and I graduated with a 2.5. I went to MCC for a semester 12 years ago and failed a couple classes passed a couple and withdrew ultimately. I had a 1.7 gpa there my first semester which is terrible but not something somebody can come back from as Ive heard stories of high school dropouts making ivy leagues or going to law or medical school who had much lower gpas than mine some not even making a 1.0. I want to redo my undergraduate experience in the ivy league because of wanting to change my maijor and career. Im looking into Monroe community college now in my area again to start as it’s one of the best ranked community college in the nation and they have relationships with schools like Cornell and Columbia. I already have been accepted into honors programs there so I feel its my chance to do college the right way. Columbia GS appeals to me because they let you take a second bachelors degree and let you transfer in credits. Cornell does not allow that. Im looking to get input from anyone out there like me who has gone through with something like this and how the process went for them and what they did. Is it more wise to to just get another undergrad degree or go for a masters as well.

You got great advice in your other thread that asked a similar question. You can’t redo your college experience and the goal of going back to cc at 31 to pursue acceptance to an Ivy at ~33 may hurt your career. How are you going to explain entering the workforce at ~35? I think you should try to get a job and quit hyperfocusing on an Ivy degree.
