I am in a graduate program right now. I am in the program because of my visa. I had to either apply for this program or go back home. However, my dream is to get my MBA in finance. I just got done with my second semester in my current program. My question is: Is that a good idea to apply for an MBA program without finishing my current program? Or should I wait until I graduate?

Why pursue an education for which you are not interested?

How would adcoms look at it? And should I mention my visa problems when being interviewed or in my essays?

Just apply for an MBA and say that going for the current program has made you realize that you want an MBA. Just explain really well that you know you want an MBA.

If your stats before this program is good then you should be good to go.
