I'm somewhat confused on the review process - Do adcoms treat these applications differently than the general pool? Do adcoms read the core consortium essays (in addition to the school core essays) as part of its review process? Should I go to the traditional application route? For example, my consortium mission essay is not that strong, albeit some experience. The mission of The Consortium is to enhance diversity in business education and leadership by helping to reduce the serious under representation of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in both our member schools' enrollments and the ranks of management. What have you done in your business, academic or personal life to demonstrate commitment to this mission? Please provide specific example of your involvement, actions and results.

In w/fellowship at Michigan. Crazy.

awesome did you just hear the news today?

anyone still waiting on stern that interviewed? I'm going a little crazy waiting

Yes, I just found out. I am in utter shock, i didn't think i would get the fellowship from anyone, esp. michigan.

congrats drmang7 - how were you notified? Posted from my mobile device

congrats, drmang! great to see so many memberships to the consortium n even a few fellowships!

Thanks everyone! I received a phone call from Ross this afternoon (on my work line, strange). I think the theory is that at Ross they are calling you based on when you interviewed, I interviewed on 1/23. Don't lose hope if you are waiting. They are notifying all their admits, not just consortium folks.
