Why Haven’t I Been Admitted Yet?

Mine said carefully considering, but I can’t log in anymore for some reason.

@prad14 that happened to me one time I have tried to log in in the 3-4 times I have this past hour. Later I tried again and it still said carefully considering

Nevermind, I can log in now. Same message as before (carefully considering)

Rejected

Sorry to hear that @bubblytaco, but thanks for providing the update. You do have some other schools that are great options, so embrace your possibilities. We are still stuck at the carefully considering status.

Thank you and I guess it just wasn’t met to be. Good luck to everyone.

bubblytaco, sorry to hear about the rejection. If you do not mind sharing, what are your stats and which college did you apply to?

Loads of extracurriculars and leadership positions, 3.7W GPA, but a 22 ACT score. I applied to the College of education.

@bubblytaco were you denied or deferred?

Denied

@bubblytaco I’m sorry :frowning:

@bubblytaco Sorry to hear the news, if you don’t mind, what was the message you heard before you got denied?

The University of Minnesota Twin Cities admissions committee has completed a very careful, individual review of your application for freshman admission. Based on an individualized, overall assessment of your application, including your coursework, grades, standardized test scores, and the additional information you provided, we sincerely regret that we are unable to offer you a place in the University’s fall 2019 freshman class. Complete information about the University’s holistic review process is provided

@bubblytaco - boo. That’s so odd and very unfortunate - wish it had been a different outcome for you. Do you have other options?

Yes, I applied to 15 other schools :slight_smile: so Minnesota is just a scratch. My top contenders are Purdue, Marquette, and Illinois Wesleyan.

@bubbly - that’s great news for you. Don’t forget that a transfer into UMN is always possible as well, should you desire that later on. CLA, for instance, admits a LOT of transfer students. Much harder to get in as a first-time-in-college.

Your decision to share your efforts, stats and outcome will be of tremendous benefit to those in regular round and in future application cycles. Thank you for that - and best of luck in your continued endeavors.

Anyone hear anything today?

Status updated yesterday at 13:00, but still haven’t heard back shxt. UMN is working slow

still haven’t changed from last update

The entire university including Admissions is closed today. Hard to believe they wouldn’t have taken care of everyone before heading out yesterday but that seems to be the case.

The office will open up tomorrow at noon.
