I have yet received confirmation that Tuck has received my application from the Consortium. I did an initiated interview a while back at the Diversity Conference and not sure if it takes longer because I did so. I also have not received an interview invite from Yale and I am not sure if this is the end with SOM. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I interviewed at Women's weekend and just heard back from Tuck today. Maybe give it another week before following up? I haven't heard back from Yale SOM either. There hasn't been a lot of activity on clearadmit so they may be waiting until the next batch. Sent from my iPhone using GMAT Club Forum mobile app

Hello Thanks for your reply What I gathered its a programme for US Citizen or permanent resident only. That rules me out Am I correct? Regards Alok

You're correct. You'd be ineligible if you are (I presume) an Indian citizen living in India with no ties to the US. Also, to get membership, you must have done work to advance underrepresented minorities in business schools/ ranks of corporate management- which may be a challenge for someone living in India.

Has anyone heard back from Stern? Have they sent out interview requests? Do you know if they submit the interview requests in batches? Thanks!

A few people were invited to Perspectives Interview Day. I am still waiting as well and am not sure if they send out invites outside of the super day.

I am still waiting to hear back from Stern regarding an interview invite as well. I believe Perspective's weekend is next weekend, someone correct me if I am wrong, so at this point we are probably waiting for individual interview invites if chosen.

Yes, Perspective's weekend is Feb 24th & 25th

For those of us that haven't received an invite from Yale, I went back and did a little research to gauge our chances as of this point in time. Fact: SOM will continue to invite on a rolling basis through early March Hypothesis: While the above seems to hold true (evidenced by reported invites through the end of the first week of March of general applicants in past years), I looked back through the Consortium thread of last year (Just 2016, I did not check 2015 or 2014) and it seems like no Consortium related Yale invites were sent after mid Feb. Therefore I tend to think it might be game over for us. They sent a batch of invites of Consortium applicants about a week ago and I think that was our opportunity. If anyone's heard of any consortium related Yale SOM invites late in Feb / early March, by all means reply and debunk my theory! Or if anyone goes back through 2014 or 2015 threads let us know. I'll do this eventually but currently swamped at work and have no more MBA theorizing time left in my budget for the day LOL. Sent from my iPhone using GMAT Club Forum

I got my Yale SOM interview invite on January 17th (sent my application on January 5th), so I asume they may have already read most of the Consortium applications. On the other hand, I haven't had any news from Tuck (they started reading my application on January 31st) and since I couldn't have a self initiated on-campus interview before the deadline (currently living in Peru) I asume I have been dinged.
