Undergraduate Business Schools

Does anyone know if any top-tier undergrad business schools offer an accelerated program to graduate with an MBA in 4 years. I thought NYU Stern offered such a program, but I talked to my guidance counselor today and she said that they didn't. Plus, she said she believed that most top-tier undergraduate business programs didn't offer MBA in 4 years.
I thought for sure U Penn - Wharton did, but I never really was 100%

Anybody can confirm this?

I've heard of someone who did Wharton undergrad for 4 years and then did Wharton MBA for 2 years. Most admits to top school MBA are after you work for 3-5 years.

I have heard of 5 year MBA programs, but not 4 year programs.

It is possible to do a 5-year program at Penn.

I'd imagine it's offered elsewhere, but if you want to get into another top 10 program you will basically need 5 years of work experience as a general rule and you'll want job experience BEFORE grad school because employers of MBAs pretty much expect you to have good job experience and you will be at a disadvantage in your class if you don't.
