I applied to Carlson as a transfer this semester (from a different U of M college). I still haven't received a decision letter, however I did get an update regarding the status of my application via email a few days ago. It said they're holding my application for final review, following the submission of my grades from this past semester.

As for me, I have a gpa of approximately 3.95, with all of my generals and tool courses completed. I have a 4.0 gpa in the tool courses, I'm an honors student, and I had a ton of extra curriculars and volunteer work to put on the addendum...

I'm going crazy not knowing!


Good luck to you.

I didn't receive that update, but I had all the tool courses completed before this semester so that's probably why...

My GPA is 3.92, tool courses 4.0, I had OK ECs..

I think my essay was pretty solid..

I'm still waiting though.. I've been accepted to IU but I think I'd rather go to the U.. I like the city better..

well, i didnt received my letter yet. i am an international student, and my roommate in the states told me that i got a letter from minnesota, and it is pretty thick and says congratulations on it. so i guess it is the admission letter. he will send the letter to my home soon, then i will notice you guys.

i guess my GPA is 3.92. the only courses that i didnt get As were english composion classes and speech class. I didnt really participate a lot of school activities. my recs were pretty good for sure. one is from a eco professor. she wrote i was the top 1 percent in her class. the other one is from Statistic professor.
