Anyone know any good exit opportunities/career changes? This is my first job in internal audit and I’m not sure if I want to be pigeon holed into this.

If you don't want to be pigeonholed, I'd get out of IA asap. Would recommend getting the CPA. The people who left my practice all went into industry IA jobs, except those with their CPA, and even they essentially "reset" any progress made in PA by becoming analysts.

If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
