Avg incoming GPA for fulltime programs:

Cornell: 3.3 (for both 2009 and 2010)
Columbia: 3.0–3.8 Range of Middle 80% (avg not given)
Yale: 3.5 (2010)
Dartmouth: 3.46 (2009)
Harvard: 3.66 (2010)
Wharton 3.5 (2010)

Harvard’s GPA may be a bit inflated due to number of applicants…this is likely to only get worse next year.

3.3 from Michigan is sufficient to get into any university. You would preferably want to supplement it with an above avg GMAT (which IMO means 750+ at top 3), but work experience is still the most important admission factor (by far).
