@sobe1hopeful - thanks for your reply! I figured there may not a large chance of it happening, but was just checking to see if anyone had ever head of it. Just being admitted would be a blessing at this point.

What is the cgsm website (URL) people are going to for checking fellowship decision? Is it the VIP page? Thanks.

I'm not sure if you got the info but here it is: https://app.applyyourself.com/AYApplica ... sp?id=cgsm

Thanks, but all I see is my application and recommender status, and a link to print receipt. There's an "eye" icon to view application, but it's not clickable for me.

Directly below my recommenders, I have a link that says "Decision Status: Available beginning 3/19/2014" I also received an email on 3/19 telling me that an update had been made to my account. This contains the formal letter, but I had already received my decisions and fellowship notice before 3/19 from my individual schools. I also have the "eye" icon that's not clickable.

waitlisted without an interview is basically a denial?

I am afraid that in the moment, Consortium applicants without admissions may have to accept the bad results. I heard that many schools have their own process for Consortium and this process has ended a couple weeks ago.

I received my denial from the Consortium (though I did get into a consortium school), a few days ago. That said, I still haven't heard anything from Cal-Berkely and UCLA. I figure I'm rejected there, but I haven't received any correspondence since the "we received your application" back in February. Are their others in the same boat? My other schools have given my acceptance/wait-listed/denied decisions already.
