Do I have odds for Columbia MBA?

I'm a second year analyst at a boutique M&A group. Went to private school that doesn't really place in to finance and then did a specialized masters in finance. Have MM PE offer pretty much lined up but want to go more towards F500 operations/finance/executive leadership long term. Maybe going to MBB consulting after MBA for a few years would be a logical path there. 

Had a high undergrad GPA but average masters GPA (took it easy after getting my offer). I know Columbia is more of a finance school from what I understand but I think it'd be a good way to live in the city. Also I'm an Asian male but I think I can work that in my favor (the specific community I'm from, can tell a good story around it)
