Does being an undergraduate alumni help / hinder chances?

Hi all, does anyone know whether being an alumni helps/hinders one's chances for admission to business school?
specific case is if I graduated from a particular school four years ago as an undergraduate, does it help or hurt me when I apply for this schools MBA program?
(this isn't an ivy league)

I've heard that schools don't like "inbreeding" so it may hurt my chances?

Please let me know some thoughts on this and if anyone from admissions consulting has a perspective I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance,

Dear Think Pharma,

It depends. Some schools receive a large number of applicants with undergraduate degrees from the same institution and others receive hardly any. So, you should try to determine which is the case for your school. Generally speaking, if the school receives a large number and you already have a business bachelor's degree from there, then it might be harder to gain admission to the MBA program. If the school does not have undergraduate business degrees and does not tend to get many alumni applicants, then it could work in your favor. Hope that helps.

Best of luck,
Lisa
