Essays/LORs/Other Strong - excellence recommendation letters

  • Assured (100% chance of admission and affordability): Michigan State - auto admit for B school, Texas Tech (got into both)
  • Likely: South Carolina
  • Toss-up: Clemson, Syracuse
  • Lower Probability: Miami, IU Kelley

He will be admitted Pre-Business to IU. Will have to pursue standard admission to Kelley by getting B or higher in the prerequisite courses.

If he has direct admission to Michigan State - Broad, he might as well go there as it is possibly cheaper and it has one of the top supply chain programs in the country.

Thank you! Any chance at Clemson or SC? I agree MSU has a great B school but he’s interested in finance, not supply chain.

In case it helps - he scored a 1210 on SAT (only took once, did not study…) But we did not report as that seems to be under the threshold.

SC-Darla Moore likely ( more competitive in the last two years) and Clemson less likely.
