Anyone else hear anything this week?
Crickets so far...I haven't heard anything from Yale so far after I completed the Video interview :roll:

Does everyone do the video interview (like Kellogg) or do you have to be invited?

Everyone gets to do the video interview.

I'm still waiting on interview invites from Georgetown and USC.

FROM The Consortium Admissions Blog: The Powers Foundation by Alex Haddock


Alex Haddock

Darden Class of 2016

Instragram: @fishstix24

Coming to business school was a bitter sweet decision for me.  I knew I wanted to transition into investment banking – a career I had pursued while an undergrad at UVA – but I had spent the last 5 years building deep, life-long relationships with students and families as a teacher.  In order to stay connected to my “educator self” I started a non-profit organization designed to support students, teachers and families in Title I public schools (schools serving a high-proportion of students from low-income households).  It was based on an idea from my first classroom in 2009 built on a belief that empowering parents to help their children is the most effective form of teaching.  Through my first few months at Darden, I have already partnered with my former school near the DC area and with a school here in UVA’s backyard.  I have also gotten the Darden community behind the cause, with many Consortium students and I volunteering to teach and interact with families at our school partners.  Furthermore, hearing of our success, we are in talks with school districts in Richmond and Baltimore about possibly expanding next year.

Ughh we won't find out about UCLA admission decisions till the end of March. It really sucks that even though we submitted our UCLA apps earlier than many R1 regular applicants, we still won't hear back until two months later. Just a 6 month wait. :cry:

Hi- got an invite to interview from Cornell. Will be going there on December 12th.

No other invites from the other schools. No idea how the process goes. I wished we got an answer, either possitive or negative, in order to have peace of mind.

Applied to

Yale
Tuck
Haas
Cornell
NYU

Will keep everyone posted.

Best of luck

Mario

Well NYU, we'll all know whether we've been invited to interview/accepted/denied on December 15th. Tuck admission decisions come out on December 18th. Haas you can hear about an interview all the way until January with admission decisions coming out on January 15th.

I'm not sure about Yale.

FROM The Consortium Admissions Blog: Diversity Online
Diversity in university and executive posts in corporations will have to catch up with the spectrum of humanity available online. A very progressive view of the Internet might propose that it is perhaps the most diverse and open network of mass communication ever invented. Online sharing tools qualify the Web as a new paradigm.



<h2>New Global Game-Changer</h2>

It may have been overly optimistic a couple decades ago to think of the Internet as a utopian force, although it certainly was a strong economic force — a bubble that soon popped. Confidence in the Web needed to be earned by the global community participating with this grand experiment.

Humanity has created the Web, as good as we have it today. It is diverse. Some people in challenged areas may have to put in extra effort to publish to the Web or use it to communicate — but the telecom services in developing economies is leapfrogging the developed economies' technological evolutions.

<h2>Strange Signs and Opportunities</h2>

With global convergence, and the Web tying us all together in real time, and the mobile computing revolution — the stage is set for a new paradigm of opportunity for young aspirants. The diverse minds learning the ropes of business and economic activity in general today will soon begin to correct course and steer the world in a more peaceful direction.

Nothing can be overlooked or written off as unimportant at first glance. Powerful new economic drivers like crowdsourcing and online commerce are game-changers. Something like a no deposit casino may seem trivial, but, it is part of one of the biggest online phenomenons world-wide in an industry worth billions.

A global economy requires diverse people in positions of responsibility in order to work. The Web may well be a strong influence upon societies that are realising how critical diversity is for comprehensive cultural and economic progress.

Hi...does anyone know what the recommender questions are for the current admissions cycle? I'm trying to put together cheat sheets for my recommenders. I was able to find the questions for the 2013-2014 cycle at the link below. How is everyone managing this?

https://blog.clearadmit.com/2013/07/consortium-graduate-study-management-recommendation-questions-2013-2014/#comment-287326

Thank you in advance!!! :-D

i'm confused.

I'm trying to send my recommender the "consortium fit" prompt. but it's asking me to fill in my own version of how i've contributed to the community. I'm not ready to fill that out yet but I would like the person to be able to start working on the recommendation. Is there anyway around this or am i just in the wrong screen. I went to "membership"

Definitely contact the Consortium. I had completed that essay, but even when I submitted my consortium recommender, there was no indication that it went through. Also, I had to contact them because my recommender wanted the link to be sent to his personal email AND his work email. I emailed them and they were able to get it done fairly quickly.
