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.

I applied to Haas and Darden through the Consortium R2 and I haven't received any e-mails from them acknowledging receipt of my application. Anyone out there apply to these schools R2 as well?

We're in the same boat, except different schools: No email whatsoever about receipt of my application from USC, UCLA, Stern, or Cornell. But my consortium VIP page says my app has been sent to them. I want acknowledgement > interview invite > acceptance! Lol

R2 candidate received notice from Haas today (see below);

Dear applicant,

I can't believe you turned in this poor excuse of an application. Never apply to this school again.

Sincerely,

Dean of Admissions

I went ahead and edited the first page to start keeping a running list of applicants. PM me or post a message here to be added. It will take some time but I can also go through the posts and add applicants. PM if you do not want to be included.

Let me know if you guys think there is a need for a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet will look nicer and we can keep track of GMAT and GPA.

Just received an email. Deadline was not extended and as said before, and on the web site, you can apply late with the understanding that person may not be eligible for membership and the fellowship.

Looks like NYU will be getting a lot of Consortium apps, if this small sample on GMAT club is any indication of course

If anyone cares, I called NYU admissions today and asked when we could expect interview invites, the lady in the office said that we "could expect them at any time." My follow up was, "can you give any sort of ballpark date." Reply, "no, they are sent at any time."

R1 deadline was Nov.15, so about a month or so. Sounds about right.

Yes, it does. I applied R1 and haven't heard a thing yet. Also I looked over the NYU thread and it looks like a lot of R1 have yet to hear anything either.
