My humble advice to you is to rethink what you're doing. Look at something like Duke's MMS program, or some other program designed for recent grads with little to no work experience. Stay away from the MBA for a while.

To follow up on method's point, with few exceptions, once you get one MBA, you can't get a second one. By taking classes at Hult, for example, you are probably severely reducing your chances at a top program later in life. Now, whether or not that's important to you is obviously a very personal decision.

It's not a very linear jump, but a Master of Accounting would certainly broaden your employment opportunities. Accounting is always hiring, it pays decently, you get tremendous exposure if you're on the audit side, and it's a decent feeder to MBA or law programs after 3 years. You can go to your nearest state school to land Big 4 relatively easy if you have decent social skills and a 3.5+ GPA.

This is just one example, but it's one I happen to know fairly well, so maybe it's something to look into, maybe not!
