I doubt so, I believe all the prestigious ones would expect some work experience, unlike those that are unheard of. taken from HBS website:
"The HBS MBA Program is designed for students who have full-time work experience before matriculation. College seniors are encouraged to apply in the expectation that they will be offered "deferred admission", i.e. an offer of admission to a future class conditional upon acquiring full-time work experience, as a positive outcome. It is important for candidates to assess their own readiness when deciding to apply: there is no universal "right" time."
HBS and Stanford GSB actually prefers young bloods than others. Throughout my experience in "stalking" these schools, I have seen many without working experience that have entered these schools. They're GMAT's are superb, combined with a track record of leadership roles as well as community involvement, not to mention letter of recommendation from influential political figures.

Some even worked at the Whitehouse straight after graduation. There was one who obtained his MBA at HBS during his 1st year degree at Harvard. Age does not matter much in US IMO, that is why their program is 2 years instead of the Europe's 1 year.
