Has anyone heard back from Stern? By when do they usually respond? Also, if you were accepted by Stern and offered a fellowship (or not offered), did you rank them #1?

Thanks!

Last year, Kelley made calls the day after the draft. Has anyone heard from Kelley regarding scholarship or consortium money?

When I was admitted, I was offered a scholarship but fingers crossed for consortium money. Keep us posted!

Anyone know the odds of someone getting passed my their top choices? I've been accepted at my #2 with a $$ merit scholarship (not CGSM), but did not hear back about Fellowship yesterday or today. This could fall into a few scenarios:

- In at choice #1
- Passed by number #2 (accepted)

I am waiting on status for my 3rd choice and was accepted to my #4 choice. Any thoughts would be helpful!!

Depends on what you #1 school is. Whichever school calls you to tell you they're giving you a fellowship, that school is the highest ranked school that admitted you. Not every school calls immediately after the draft. Some schools love to take their time

New poster here and I have a quick question, thank you in advance for your help!

I applied for 6 schools in R1 and was accepted in my #4 and #5 choice and waitlisted on my #3. I opted to take myself off the waitlist for my #3.

If given the fellowship, will I hear directly from my #4 choice or from The Consortium? Because I only got accepted on my #4 and #5, does that ding me for my fellowship opportunities? I submitted my application back in October and cannot believe I am just now finding this forum! Thank you again for your help and best of luck to everyone!

Definitely a waiting game. I was rejected by my number 1 admitted by my #2 and #3 but haven't heard a thing. Hoping for good news.

I think you hear back directly from the school if you're offered the full fellowship. If not you will hear back from the Consortium via their portal if you were provided membership.

LADCLA I think it depends on the schools. If the school is more competitive then your chances are pretty much none. However, if the school is less competitive then you may have a slight chance of receiving the fellowship. How you rank the schools plays a huge part for this reason. I have heard that applicants who rank Ross #2 hardly ever receive fellowships and I am sure it is the same for schools alike.
