I was waitlisted at UM, the message said Im an alternate for admissions. Whats the likelyhood I will get off the waitlist? Im withing their margin, but I applied just 2 weeks ago so maybe that was a factor.

Im a 3.44/157

You know that 40/50 U.S. states have "M" as their first letter, right?

There's no way to know what your chances are. Just send in a letter of continued interest and go from there.

However, keep in mind that Miami is a poor choice because its very expensive and its local market, the market that it mainly places in, is oversaturated.

In any case, good luck.

It doesn't have to be this way! Save yourself while you can!

I STRONGLY believe that at this point, FIU may be a better choice than UM if forced to pay sticker at both.

BAM.

Just like how getting shot in the foot is better than being shot in the balls.
