If I received a fellowship from a school that I ranked lower, does that mean I didn’t get into the schools that I ranked higher?

No, it just means they didn't offer you the consortium fellowship. You can be admitted without fellowship.

I received a fellowship from a school that I ranked 5th. I don’t think ranking matters.

Does not getting a call from any school before the official decision deadline mean that you didn't get a fellowship, or not necessarily? Are they perhaps going down their "stack rank" when choosing who to call and notify of admit+fellowship?

I don’t think this has any bearing. I think it’s simply a matter of school preference. I received the Consortium Fellowship from Washu Olin on 3/10 (their decision day) because I ranked them 1st. I did not, however, receive an early call from them.

Same here. Just got the call from USC Marshall's director notifying me that I received the Consortium fellowship. Very excited. Official documentation to be sent out on the 18th I believe he said.

Hello! I got an email from Johnson for an Ask Me Anything, and they said welcome to the Consortium family. Does that mean I'm in the Consortium? I wasn't notified of anything bc they were not my first school...

Out of curiosity, will you be able to apply the Merit Scholarship money towards costs outside the Tuition and Fees that the Consortium fellowship covers? Or does it get capped at the tuition and fees only?

I’m not 100% sure but I believe it gets capped out. Merit scholarships only cover tuition from my understanding (not room and board) so I don’t believe any extras can go elsewhere. Hope that helps !

Did any R2 applicants get an early call? It seems most were R1 applicants or R2 apps where the schools decision date was this week.
