@home - I meant what UMN college was your second choice? Your first choice was Carlson but you were allowed to specify a 2nd choice - CLA, CFANS, etc. If you didn’t, you might wish to contact them unless you won’t come if you are not placed in Carlson.
Again, they don’t admit to MAJOR. They accept you for one of the admitting colleges. The admitting colleges are Carlson (CSOM), Liberal Arts (CLA), Engineering/Sciences (CSE), Forestry/Natural Sciences (CFANS), Ed/Human Development (CEHD), Design (CDes)
And what higher chance are you referring to - a higher chance for Carlson or a higher chance to UMN? The highest chance for Carlson is getting admitted as a high school senior. After that it gets more difficult because space is very limited and there are many who want to transfer in. Your highest chance for UMN is going to be specifying a 2nd choice (see above) such as CLA, CFANS, or CEHD because all of those are less selective than Carlson.
Good luck!
