There are over 4,000 colleges and universities in USA, so this is not an easy question to answer. Obtaining an entry will depend on your academic and career background. For example, competition to enter Harvard for pursuing an MBA from is very high, so you will require top grades and GMAT score (along with other non-academic related criteria).
My suggestion is, you research and find the university you wish to study to (if you are seeking a top MBA college you can research rankings such as in US News and World Report). You can then determine for which university or college you meet the criteria and apply accordingly. -
How many years of work experience do you have? It ask for average 5 years of work experience and for an executive MBA. However, you can look for other specialised courses rather than MBA. It depends on your interest. Since I have seen a few students who opted for such specialised courses like MS in public policy or international relations or affairs after graduating from IIMs and having hands on experience.

Yes, IIM Ahmedabad is certainly costly. IIM Ahmedabad total fees ranges between INR 64,000 and INR 33 lakh. The fees vary depending on the programme and specialisation selected by the students. The fee for certain programmes certainly falls in the higher end of the spectrum. Students need to pay INR 25 lakh as IIM Ahmedabad MBA fee. However, considering the fact that IIMA is one of the top-rate IIMs and limitless oppurtunities students can experience at the institute, it might be considered a worthwile investment. Further, the institute also offers financial aid to its students.
