How long does it take the U to make decision?

<p>Thanks much, he applied to Liberal Arts as his only choice, application has been complete over a month and on-line status shows “being very carefully considered” all week. Hard to be patient as the parent of a senior. </p>

<p>Congrats on your admission!</p>

<p>Application just changed to “being carefully considered.” I applied to Carlson on October 22nd.</p>

<p>The application tracker was updated almost a week after I got my letter, so check the mail first!</p>

<p>Good Luck to All</p>

<p>Accepted to the College of Liberal Arts! I was wait listed for Carlson Business School. Admissions counselor gave me a call this weekend and gave me the news. I sent an e-mail to the school asking why the response took so long and they got back to me that week and told me the decision! Application tracker is still not updated.</p>

<p>JConness23 what were your stats? im still waiting to hear i applied in september</p>

<p>I emailed them just to make sure there was not a problem with my application since it has been over 4 months. Hopefully they just don’t tell me to wait until late February… >.></p>

<p>Hi do you guys know when transfer students for Fall 2012 typically get a decision?</p>

<p>It says the deadline to apply is March 1. I sent mine by post on December 29th~ish but the status says my application hasn’t been received.
Since I’m an inter-college transfer, I’m wondering if it’s even put in the application tracker (though I should think so, since it does change your college of enrollment)</p>

<p>?</p>

<p>Finally an update :smiley: I got a call from an admissions counselor last night after I emailed the admissions office. Basically, he told me I was going to be admitted to the university BUT the reason that my application is taking so long is because my first choice was College of Science & Engineering. Since it’s one of the most competitive UMinn colleges, I am borderline. They want to wait until the end of the process to make sure they don’t admit too many students to CSE.</p>

<p>In other words, if you are still waiting on a decision it may simply be because you are on a “wait list” for your first choice college.</p>

<p>Omg after nearly 5 months…updated to “carefully considered” wish me luck :D</p>

<p>Ironically I wish they would have waited a week because I JUST sent them an updated transcript today (with improved rank/GPA) lol oh well guess it doesnt matter :/</p>

<p>I applied mid-November and received my acceptance letter today in the mail! :)</p>

<p>GPA: 3.5 UW, 3.8 W
Non-ranking school
Lots of EC and awards
250+ service hours
6 APs
SAT: 2030, 11 writing
ACT: 29 composite, 29 writing</p>

<p>Accepted to CLA ? O.o lol i don’t remember putting it as my second choice. Lol oh well so happy to be finally accepted but don’t think I’ll consider it unless I somehow get a small scholarship and/or could get into a different major. Good luck to you guys :)</p>

<p>@TexRose, what was you first choice school? I was accepted to CLA today even though I wanted CSE engineering first choice… </p>

<p>It took the UMinn 3 months and… 5 days (I applied November 25th)</p>

<p>3.93 uw gpa (school doesn’t rank or weight ~4.2)
SAT: 2040
ACT: 31
Leadership in band, soccer, tons of music and awards
100 hrs community service</p>

<p>^yea i applied September 8th. My first choice was CSE for Chemistry.</p>

<p>I applied back in August and they didn’t tell me anything until right before Christmas. Their “rolling” system doesn’t seem to be very efficient. However, ever since I was accepted and called the faculty there a few times, they have been very helpful and nice.</p>
