I’m interested in applying to th dual degree program for MBA/MPH and understand Berkeley has it where you can I apply jointly to the program. However, I’m also interested in applying through Consortium to be considered for the fellowship. Does anyone know how submitting the application work in this case?

I just finished and submitted my application. I left the Video Essay part for now. When I open the application I am not seeing an option to submit the video essay. Anyone knows where this could be?
