i know! maybe i'll take this to pm but have you thought about what if you got into one of those? Giving up the cgsm community seems quite hard. and right now....LA vs Chi-town weather is making it tough....been dreaming about burning my winter jackets.

Ross is boss. Hard decision between Fuqua and Ross. Angelfire, we have to wait for the Chicago schools though.

Wow, I didn't even get membership because I apparently didn't show enough commitment to the mission. I feel like living overseas the past 5 years really hurt me. Really disappointed, I was looking forward to at least flying out to OP and participating in the network.


I've always been confused by this. Are you not committed if you didn't participate in LEAD, SEO or not a member of the NAACP? Exactly how do you show commitment to the issue?
I am applying this fall, and would appreciate insight from people who has successfully navigated this terain. I am passioante about women's issues, and have devoted my time to that and the military, would I be considered not committed to the "the inclusion of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in American business"?

Got membership but not fellowship. Now I have some tough decisions to make.

I'm gonna wait to see what Darden says, organize my finances, then make a choice next week. Ross and Darden are the front runners, and I think I can handle paying the extra money for one of those two.

Also, after getting accepted to Ross I got mobbed by local alumni/admits (in a good way) and it's making it hard to say no to Ross.


have your heard from Darden yet?

I am confused by this as well. I am Hispanic and did consulting projects for a low-income African-American church in Baltimore before I left for Asia. Since then, I have seen literally 1-2 AA/Hispanic/Native people in the 5 years I have been here. Also, since I am technically an immigrant here, I can be deported if I volunteer. I tried to finesse this in my essays, but no dice.

I am actually really surprised because i've never seen a post of "I got denied membership" before. Only no fellowship, but received membership. I would be happy to have membership even without the fellowship :(

I didn't. I don't think it has been posted yet, because I don't have that "view your decision" link when I log in. I called and left a message with cgsm, hopefully they'll get back soon and I'll post their response here.

I think I'm good because I received the fellowship, but I just wanted to make sure the school and cgsm were on the same page. Looks like at least one person was admitted to a cgsm school, but unfortunately wasn't admitted into the cgsm class.

I also don't have a "view decisions" does that mean I still have hope?

i guess technically, it says it will be available STARTING march 19 - i got an email during the night saying mine was available - so it seems auto generated...maybe it will be released throughout the day. I remember earlier in the process someone from that office told me that stuff get sent in batches.

Cool, thanks for your help. Just have to be patient I guess, I'm sure they'll update it soon. I was only worried because I received that email with the link to check, but when I logged in - nothing.

Thanks again!
