When are we getting our packets? I'm starting to feel like being told I received a fellowship was a dream,...I need some physical evidence!!

LOL! +1. I said that exact same thing to my wife yesterday.

Nothing feels safe with April Fools Day around the corner lol

@Qwill - What part of the country do you live in?

Did anyone on the east coast get their letter/binder yet?

Is there anything in the letter that says which schools you got into? Darden's d-day isn't until Tuesday, and I'd like to know whether the letter gives any clue.

Not sure if I'm understanding correctly.... Even if we get the fellowship - WE pay the initial school deposit to lockup our spot in the class? Or are you talking about some other deposit?

Yah man, even with a Consortium Fellowship we still have to pay the school's deposit by the school's dealine to lock up our seat in the class. They will refund it to us in August once we start. I already paid the first half of mine last Friday and it was painful. "Hello paycheck; good-bye paycheck."

Yes, the deposit shows that you're committed to the school. Not sure how it works for other schools but the deposit I submitted is just added to my bursar package and I can use it for fees/books/healthcare, etc. If it isn't used by the end of the semester/year, Johnson will reimburse me.

I couldn't help you there. I got WL'd at the other two schools I applied to, so mine just mentioned Darden.

I'm east coast & ditto deposit will be applied to your bursar bill as a credit - so it eventually will cover a non-tuition related item that the school may bill you for i.e. Books, health insurance, MBA program fee (each school may be diff in what 'tuition' exactly covers)

Also it does say the name of the school to which you were accepted & offered cgsm fellowship.

I'm curious what happens with all you Park Fellows? Or anyone who goes to cgsm school w/o cgsm money.

Wow. I don't think I'll receive a fellowship from Darden, but I am curious to see whether I am admitted.

I haven't received any calls and the d-day isn't until Tuesday next week. Can't wait to go home and see my mail :oops:
