Has anyone heard anything from Anderson? Their website says their Consortium decision release date is today, but I haven't seen anything on here or clear admit...did I miss something about their date being pushed back?

That’s my guess so CONGRATS!

Does anyone know if it’s possible if you are admitted to two consortium schools, but your preferred choice is not the one who offered the fellowship- if you can have the other school cover your Consortium related expenses such as travel to and housing costs at OP?

I read on another thread that you need to pay for the OP costs yourself if you decided to participate, but not enroll in the school which grants your the fellowship.

Has everyone that was admitted to a Consortium school been notified of their status with Consortium membership? I was admitted to Cornell without the Fellowship, but my VIP page doesn't have anything regarding my membership status?

Same for me. I assume our VIP portals will be updated after the 23rd... Just my guess, though.

Thanks for raising this question! I had the same experience: admitted without fellowship to a few of my schools, but no news on the membership. If you get admitted to a school via CGSM, is it very competitive to then receive membership, or do many people receive it?

I could be wrong, but I got the impression that membership isn't competitive. It's you either meet the criteria of the mission or you don't.

I also wonder! I was admitted to two programs one with a full scholarship, another with partial funding, but neither is the Consortium.

The third school i am waiting to hear back from is the one I suspect will offer me the consorotium fellowship, but they won’t release admission decisions until the 23rd so I’m in a weird limbo where I actually now prefer the school that provided the full ride! From what I’ve read (https://www.theqwocmba.com/the-consortium) I can Still participate in OP, but have to pay out of pocket!

Anyone feeling similarly/have any experience with this?

I feel similarly! Incredibly thankful but also torn.

My CGSM Rank 1 offered me the fellowship, and my Rank 2 offered a full scholarship. I am not sure which one I will choose.
