Hey,

I'm a freshman here at NU. Your profile looks really similar to what I had sent in last year, I can say you have a pretty good chance of getting in. During my orientation, I was told by the school that the CBA (College of Business Admin.) had approx 7.5k applicants for only 500 spots...so it might be more difficult this coming year but good luck. I say you have a pretty good chance.
