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.

Does anyone know if Tuck requires their own interview to accept a Consortium student? Have they accepted anyone with just Consortium interview?

Recieved this today and applied on Jan 4th. I'm guessing this means I am a likely ding. Anybody else get this email? I have not interviewed.

Thank you for applying to the Tuck School of Business through the Consortium for Graduate Study in Management. We have received your application and it is currently under review by the Admissions Committee.

We will contact you prior to the decision release date of March 18, 2011 with instructions on how to access your admission decision. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected].

Thought I'd join in on the conversation. I applied consortium R1 but since I retook my GMAT in Dec, some of the schools put me in R2.

Here's the list:

UCLA - interviewed
USC - Ding
Haas - Waiting (R2)
UT - Waiting
Tepper - Waiting (R2)
Univ Wisconsin - In with full scholarship and living stipend

I interviewed at UCLA a few days ago and will be visiting Wisconsin in March. The school is paying for the trip so I thought it would be good to see it and meet current students.

Had my Ross interview yesterday. Probably the most bizarre interview I've had to date (either demeanor like that or that was part of the interviewer's strategy). In either case, I think it went well. Met with a couple members of a club I'm interested in after the interview and then headed back home (2 hour drive from Ann Arbor).

See where the cards land.
