I was just deferred from CSOM. Applied on November 11th through Golden Gopher app with a 33 ACT and 3.96W/3.883UW GPA. Lots of ECs (my most impressive being DECA, for which I was Director of Recruitment junior year and am currently President, and have competed at state and nationals), FBLA, NHS, NBHS, volunteer at nonprofit cafe for 4 years, two different jobs, academic peer tutor, and high school and club volleyball. 4 AP classes (AP Lang, AP Econ, AP Psych, APUSH), and a few dual enrollment courses. I changed my major right after I applied after mistakenly choosing the wrong one, so not sure if that has anything to do with it. Didn’t send letters of rec but wrote both essays. Really surprised by the deferral.
