Waitlist Chances

Based on prior years, do a good amount of people get into the UMN from the waitlist?

were you waitlisted?

I was recently accepted to CLA, my second choice after Carlson, and was told that that I’m on the Carlson waitlist.

College: CSOM
Major: Finance
GPA: 3.65 UW/3.74W
9 AP, rest are honors
Class Rank: ~130/490 (Highly competitive school, this was my downfall)
ACT: 33
EC:
DECA (Business Club) for 3 years, president for 1
-Won 1st in marketing management
-Won 1st in Sports and entertainment promotion plan
Junior Achievement (entrepreneurship club) Vice President for 2 years.
-2nd place in carlson regional competition for company of the year
Teen lead representative at non profit organization
-speak at events to raise awareness/donations for underprivelidged children in India.

Really bummed I wasnt admitted to carlson but still hoping people who decide not to go give me a chance to get in from the waitlist. Do you guys think I’m competitive with others who have been waitlisted? Do I have a chance?

@sujeet98 you have a good chance of getting in. Even if you don’t get in, you can always transfer from CLA to CSOM easily if you’re a student.
