boutique from a non-target

Is it possible to get into a boutique right after graduating from a non-target b-school? I see some data on WSO that grads from universities like Michigan State University have broken into IB bulge brackets but that must be for the undergrads. Can b-school grads break into a mid-market or a boutique from a non-target?
