i'm in a top 20 MBA program and there absolutely is no dress code, formal or informal. i'll admit that on the first day, everyone dressed up (not including me), but after the first few sessions, people just started wearing normal clothes. why would you want to wear such formal clothes to sit in a classroom. on the other hand, if you had a classroom presentation or interview, we will dress accordingly.
You really aren't a graduate student. I mean, you probably aren't doing research, a thesis, and teaching undergrads. You are in a professional school. As long as you're (or somebody is) paying for school, they don't care.
Graduate students get master's and PhD degrees that involve research. This may seem like an old school distinction but if you're in business, dentistry, medicine, law, nursing, pharmacy etc., you're most likely going to professional school and not grad school.
