what if your interview for the school is scheduled in March instead? Does that mean my interview won't get into the system? My darden interview is in March. I don't expect a response until the end of March. The normal deadline is 25th.

[quote="Faith783"]Last year, actual SOM R2 decision was on 4/4 but consortium applicants got theirs on 3/4 (read 2014 threads for Consortium and the one for Yale SOM). I think they will let you know ahead of time bc of the fellowship draft.

[quote="jbotero08"]What if a schools decision date is later in March? CMU's is March 25th. Will they let you know ahead of time?

[quote="Faith783"]Yale admissions confirmed that invitations for CGSM applicants will start going out very soon (next 1-2 week). They are currently working through our apps but all schools are expected by CGSM to issue final decisions to students around the first week of March (consistent with last year). So let's try relax!

Did anyone who got a Tuck interview invite try logging into their events/interview schedule on the webpage? When I did that no events showed up. Is this because I applied through the Consortium? Thank you.

Same boat. I just got my invite on Friday though, so it's only been 1 business day and maybe today doesn't count since it's President's Day. Maybe give them until Wednesday?

Got my first invite to interview and it is from my top choice Tuck. I was balding and graying from stress...hopefully that slows the process some.

No time. They emailed last night late and I have it tonight via Skype. So today has not been very productive at work. Good luck to you too. Thanks!

Hey,

I applied to Yale and Berkeley for Round 2 through the consortium. I got an in interview invite from SOM in the second week of January, and I scheduled an interview in San Francisco the beginning of March. SOM sent me an email a couple days ago saying they needed to have consortium interviews for round 2 completed by 2/20, and I was offered a Skype interview as a reschedule. I asked to come to the campus instead and will be going to New Haven next week.

As far as I know, Haas has not been sending out round 2 consortium (or regular) invites yet, and I don't know why they also don't have to get interviews done by 2/20.

I hope this is helpful information in some way.

I submitted on deadline day, received a confirmation email from Haas that my application was received on Jan 13, and received an interview invite on Jan 26.

Re: Calling All 2015 Consortium Applicants Thread [#permalink] New post   17 Feb 2015, 21:23
finished my ucla interview - Skype. Pretty conversational - some examples i gave were weak IMO...kinda like how i felt about the kellogg video essay - not adding points but not taking away i don't think. If you Skype have your id nearby - they take a screen shot... i assumed it was not necessary since it wasn't in person.

walk me through resume
why mba
why ucla
example of a time you did something unpopular
example of a time you led a team well
what will you add to the class
any clubs
questions for me?

they are pretty precise with the time - so don't ramble. i think they schedule them back to back
