An option for Olins minority students is the Consortium for Graduate Study In Management (CGSM). Do many applicants take advantage of that?
Absolutely. The way the Consortium works is that students apply through the Consortium and then identify among the 11 partner schools which ones they’re most interested in attending. The applications then go out to those institutions who make their reviews and assessments and determine whether or not admission is realistic, while also taking a look to see if the Consortium fellowships, which each institution is committed to funding, are appropriate for those individuals. Consortium fellowships cover full tuition, and in any given year could vary from institution to institution, both in terms of how many fellowships are offered and how many students accept the offers. This year, for example, I believe, we have eight Consortium fellows who will be joining the Olin School with the full fellowship funding.
