A: The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management is the country’s preeminent organization for promoting diversity and inclusion in American business. Through an annual competition, The Consortium awards merit-based, full-tuition fellowships to America’s best and brightest candidates. In conjunction with our member schools, sponsoring companies, and our elite group of MBA students and alumni, The Consortium has built a forty year legacy of fostering inclusion and changing the ethnic and cultural face of American business. Q: How does the application process for the Consortium differ from a regular school application? A: Common Application - One application allows you to apply to up to six Consortium schools.

I also was dinged without interview...

Got WL at Goizueta, already got dinged by McCombs, Marshall and Olin. Tuck and Tepper most likely will be dings because I wasn't invited for an interview to either one (I applied to Tuck last minute, and all the interview slots were full in the month of January so I couldn't complete my applicant-initiated interview in time to be considered for Consortium deadline)....but maybe one of the two or both will WL me, and that will be good enough for me as I'm confident I can get off a WL. Anything is better than "NO" right? On a side note, I'm still shocked that I wasn't even invited to an interview at Marshall. Oh well...:/ I just wanna get IN to a Consortium member school...that's all I want!

Does anyone know what day we should expect a decision from Tepper? The email I was sent originally has the incorrect dates (2011 - 2012 application period) and it says the decisions will come out on March 16th, 2012. When I look online at the Tepper website, it says March 18th if you applied on January 3rd. Is there any reason the decision date would be different for Consortium students or should I assume we will get an email on the 18th?

Has anyone heard anything from Stern or Goizueta regarding the fellowship? I really don't understand why the schools are making us wait if they already know the answer lol.

Got a call from Yale this morning. Didn't get the Consortium fellowship, but I got some scholarship money.

I'm in the same boat when it comes to Yale but NYU was my 1st choice and they offered me a full ride.

And no one has heard anything about Anderson fellowships yet, right? We're all waiting for a call today...? Posted from my mobile device

Congrats! I take it you're leaning strongly towards Stern?

Call today from Anderson??? Where did you get that from? I thought that they were gonna release decisions randomly until April 3rd. Please confirm. I dont wanna be looking at my phone all day
