Hello everyone, do you have an idea of the acceptance rate for University of Minnesota's College of Liberal Arts? A little stressed here and trying to understand my chances. Thanks!
Hello! While the University of Minnesota does not publish acceptance rates for individual colleges within the university, I can still give you a general sense of the level of competition you might be facing.
In recent years, the University of Minnesota has had an acceptance rate in the 70-75% range. Since the College of Liberal Arts is large and covers a wide range of majors, its acceptance rate likely isn't too different from that of the institution as a whole.
In terms of improving your chances, focus on maintaining a strong academic record and extracurricular involvement. It's recommended that you research the average test scores and GPA of admitted students in order to compare your own academic profile. Additionally, make sure to submit a well-crafted personal statement and strong letters of recommendation, to be sure your more intangible strengths and talents come across as well.
Best of luck with your application to University of Minnesota's College of Liberal Arts!
