https://kelley.iu.edu/mba/images/consortiumLogo.gif Note: Application for Fall 2011 is now live! Q: What is the Consortium? 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. (University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill requires that all applicants submit both The Consortium application and the UNC application) Tiered Application Fee - Using The Consortium common application significantly reduces your application fee costs. You may apply to up to two member schools for $150, three schools for $200, four schools for $240, five for $275, and six for $300 (source: Official Consortium website ) Essays - There are 2 common essays as part of the Consortium application. Additionally, each member school you are applying to requires at least 1 separate, school specific essay. Interviews - There is 1 common Consortium interview that you must schedule with either a Consortium Alum or a representative at a Consortium School. Note that the interview does not necessarily have to take place at a school you are applying to. Afterward, individual schools may or may not require an additional school specific interview. Q: Can I apply even if I am not an under-represented minority? A: The Consortium seeks applicants who align themselves with its mission . Being a minority is not a prerequisite as long as the applicant has demonstrated a commitment to the Consortium's mission in his or her life.

Maybe lagomez doesn't really exist. Maybe lagomez is an allegory meant to represent the futility and comedy of the business school process. Maybe there is a little of lagomez in each of us...

Everytime a bschool *dings*, an lagomez gets his...tank top.

Holy_____ Everyone needs to read this!
I just got word that FS recipients will be contacted tonight by phone. My source works at the Ritz in St. Louis and has been hired to eavesdrop on the process.
She refuses to reveal her name, but goes by "deepthroat".
She also said that......

I totally see that happening.. LAGOMEZ is probably in the room with them right now! During break time LAGOMEZ says "hey guys wanna see something funny? I have a login to that message board where everyone is obsessed!" So then they all pull up chairs and someone from NYU brings in a bowl of popcorn while someone from Haas opens up a 2 liter soda and it goes all over the place! Then they all start laughing and yelling out things to LAGOMEZ - "Hey post this... hey post this.....hahaha"

I think it's plausible so to that I say.. "HI CONSORTIUM ADCOM COMMITTEE PEOPLE!!! IT'S ME... MONEY9111!"

lago, if you're an adcom member, that would be worse than donny brasco. you're dead if that's the case! We will find you and torture you with DS and SC problems and then give you paper cuts for each one you don't get right, using the application papers of unsuccessful applicants, then hang you with a rope made of oily NYU tank tops! We will then hang you from a helicopter and fly you over this year's OP, so as to deter this betrayal from ever recurring!

Just got confirmation from my #6 school that they are offering me a fellowship. What are the chances that the other schools will still admit without fellowship considering that I interviewed at #1, ding #2, haven't heard from 3,4, and 5.

Congrats on the fellowship offer from your #6! Are they offering you a consortium fellowship or another kind of internal fellowship?

Perror, when you say "just got confirmation", do you mean that you received it today? Were you previously admitted to this school? We are hanging on every word here...
