I'm totally stealing this from the 2019 Consortium topic . Welcome all Consortium folks! Come forward, introduce yourself to fellow applicants, share your post MBA aspirations and motivations for MBA. I am sure a fruitful exchange of ideas and positive dialogue with co-applicants will help everyone immensely in your own apps. If there are any reapplicants or current students, we'd love to know the last year's application experience!

I know many of us are still waiting on Marshall but if I haven't received an interview invite from Anderson is it pretty much a confirmed ding at this point?

I think there's still time so I wouldn't say that yet.

It's a bit peculiar that a good amount of people are receiving decisions from Marshall already (according to clearadmit), but as far as I know, Consortium applicants haven't even received interview invites.

Just got an interview invite from Marshall today! Here's to hoping there are more December interview invites coming through for these schools.

Hey guys, heard from Ross yesterday. They gave me the scholarship decision during the call (did not get the full tuition Consortium fellowship but a separate partial tuition one).

I got waitlisted by my top choice Consortium school. I don't know if the fellowship is even possible for me anymore because my #2 choice also waitlisted me. #3 gets back to me next week, but not expecting much.

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. Your #3 choice still has the option to offer it to you.
Do you mind telling which schools?

Haas is the #3 but they have a smaller endowment spread over a much bigger Consortium community, and I doubt they'll give it to me when you consider ranking + my stats. I'd have to wait until March to find out anyway. I essentially missed the mark on Consortium unfortunately.

Senpapi, are you sure when waitlisted by your first choice the second choice has a chance to offer you? I thought you had to be rejected by your first choice. The same thing that happened to Witness49 happened to me.

@Witness49, Consortium responded back to me and I can confirm when waitlisted the next school has a chance to offer you that fellowship scholarship.

@Witness49 I have tried to reach them too to get an answer. Keep me posted they get back to you. I will let you know if they get back to me too.
