I'm in the same boat. No link to view the decision, just my application. Posted from my mobile device

Send me a PM and I can tell you more about establishing being aligned to the mission.

I went through the process last year and didn't get enough $ (that's why I reapplied through the Consortium). I don't have any real borrowing capacity due to a prior grad degree, and I'm not willing to give up 2 years to attend a non-top school; given that I'm already a bit older, this is/was my last shot at making it work.

ah i see. IMO haas has a pretty decent reputation but I can understand not wanting to take on more debt. I was under the impression that even their merit awards needed a separate app so isn't it stil possible you might get some money from them? where you looking to transition or just move up in your field?

mahkie Don't worry, you aren't alone. I got denied membership as well. Small sample of what I do as guidance for future applicants: - Free to $(Cover my gas money )/hr Tutoring for low income college students - Serve on a non-profit board - Volunteer 15+hrs/week with local sports association (coaching/refereeing) I am not a "minority" group (neither race nor gender) so I am not too surprised about not receiving a fellowship, but am about membership. But so it goes.
