Hi,

I'm a college senior looking into my options for grad school. Right now, I'm between b-school and law school. In researching b-school, I see that there is an organization called the consortium. It looks like something that could be beneficial but I am not sure if it would be worth my while to apply. I am non-urm and it states specifically that the organization is meant to advance the status of URM's in business management. Are women considered URM for b-school/consortium purposes? The consortium site says that it is open to any US citizen, but what are my chances of being accepted as a non-urm (provided that my scores and GPA are high)?

I don't think the consortium really applies to you. You should go the traditional route.

Quick question: I'm assuming that part-time programs (like UCLA FEMBA) are not part of the Consortium application. Correct?
