Welcome all Consortium folks! Come forward, introduce yourself to fellow applicants, share your post MBA aspirations and motivations for MBA. I am sure a fruitful exchange of ideas and positive dialogue with co-applicants will help everyone immensely in your own apps.

If there are any reapplicants or current students, we'd love to know the last year's application experience!

Congrats! Do you mind sharing when you submitted your application to the Consortium for round 2?
I'm wondering if the Consortium is working through the list of submitted applications alphabetically or by the date of submission

I submitted late on the deadline day and my initials are JW, so I probably wouldn't be the first reviewed by either measure.

Same with me, I submitted Saturday evening and my application has been sent to the schools

Submitted early Saturday and mine haven't been released

I'm in the same boat. I'm sure they will be released shortly.

I think Jones is missing from the tracker. I never got a notification that my applications were submitted, yet I received an interview invitation from Jones.

Hi All,

I submitted my Consortium application on Saturday morning (01/05) but haven't received notification that my applications were released. I took the GRE again on 01/02 and used the optional essay to mention this.

My quantitative score improved by 2 points:155 (58 %tile) to 157 (65th %tile). Yale has an option in their portal to update them with unofficial scores. My question is this: If I do provide them with a copy of my unofficial scores, will it possibly delay the review of my application? It might take ETS up to 10 days to report my new scores to Yale. I'm so afraid to delay my application review!

I selected for both The Consortium and Yale to receive my scores directly from ETS. Both have already received scores from my first test back in October 2018.

Thanks so much for your feedback!

The Consortium won't release your application to any of the schools until you submit your official GRE scores to them.

Also, please add your score and schools you applied to to your profile.

The Consortium has my first official score from the time I took the GRE in October 2018. I recently took it again on Jan 2nd.

To be clear, The Consortium states the following policy: At least one official test score report must be received by The Consortium in order for your application to be considered complete and sent to schools for review.

My question is regarding whether or not I should update Yale with my second unofficial test score and if this could possibly delay review of my application.

I think you should send Yale MBA admissions an email about your new score. The admissions team is fantastic at Yale so they'll help you.

Hello,

I have submitted my Consortium application on December 11th and have yet to receive an email saying my application has been processed and sent to my schools. Is this normal? Should I be worried my schools will receive my application after other candidates?

When my application was marked as complete I got an email saying it could take up to 7 days after the deadline for it to be forwarded to the different programs. It also said that I'd receive a confirmation email once it was, just got that email a little bit ago. If you've received that first email I'd give them a few more days to forward it, if you haven't gotten that first email I'd double check that your app is completed.

Just FYI my application was released last night and I submitted late on Saturday night, so idk how they pick the order to get sent off
