I don’t know about the pre-admission to the biz program being bupkis. If that is a student’s true area of interest, to me that is a huge plus. Some of the top undergrad programs that are only 2-year programs, such as Wisconsin, are not real easy to gain admission to as a soph., and have min. gpa requirements. That said, Wisc. doesn’t look too bad (see stats below, from Business Week rankings), and I would much rather spend 4 years in Madison than CP!

925 freshmen (admitted and denied) sought full-time admission to the business program for the 2006-2007 academic year.
71% of these applicants were admitted to the program and 98% of admitted students enrolled.
