You really should consult an Immigration Attorney. Please send me an email if in Southern California with your contact information and we can discuss your particular facts. There is no fee for consultation.

Are you kidding? The answer is slim to none. Are you here in the U.S.? If so, you may be able to go to school without an F-1 visa, but it depends on the details. If you must apply to business school and are out of the U.S., you will have to convince the consul that you will return after the end of your studies and temporary stay in the U.S. This MIGHT be possible, but it would not be easy to prove.
I like and am very successful at hard cases. I would be happy to help you out if you contact me offline. Check me out at http://www.yardum-hunter.com, fill out a consultation request there at http://www.yardum-hunter.com/Main/Consultation.asp or email me at [email protected].

Dear Inquirer:
You will be denied an F-1 visa or an F-1 change of status if you are an intending immigrant. Since you have an I-140 approved, you will be considered an intending immigrant.
Please visit our website at www.hanlonlawgroup.com for more information or email [email protected] if you would like to schedule an appointment for a confidential consultation to discuss this matter further.
