MBA of any university doesn't require bachelors degree in accounting/finance only. It can be in any discipline. The main reason why ACCA affiliates are not accepted into LUMS's MBA is that ACCA does not any project submition requirement(which is a very essential part of Bachelors degree). In Pakistan many universities enroll students with HEC recognised degrees. Hence an equivalent certificate of Oxford Brooke's Bsc in applied accounting will be acceptable in LUMS. In IBA their website says they do accept students of professional qualifications(i am not sure about ACCA though). There are some universities which offer MBA/MSc to ACCA students and affiliates
