I was expecting an email but in a very unconventional approach the results were posted on Reliance Fellowship's applyyourself page. When the email did not arrive [1] till evening, I checked the application page and was disappointed to read that I was not selected. There was no particular reason given, just the usual about number of applicants, not satisfying all the selection criteria and also that there will not be any individual feedback given. This is a wake up call, time to stop relaxing and start concentrating on applications to other schools.
Apparently, there were 1400 entries. That's a huge number considering the very low level of publicity. I stumbled upon it only when I went to the Stanford website to check if they've announced the application deadlines. Googling it would not have given much information couple of months back, the Stanford Financial Aid page was the only place it was announced. And only a few bloggers and MBA web sites talked about it when I checked couple of weeks back.
