Hi everyone! I have got an offer from UChicago MSFM with 20% scholarship and got waitlisted by CMU MSCF. CMU MSCF advised to look at current class profile and strengthen my application. I wanted to know what are the realistic chances of conversion from waitlist to being admitted? I kind of get the sense that the CV I submitted was bit off (I misunderstood when they said it can be 1-2 pages) and have an updated one (standard 1 page used for Jan submissions) with relevant projects and talking points. I also have completed advanced statistics courses since then and plan to do 1-2 more math ones as refreshers. At this point this is the only amendment I can make to my profile with the given timelines.
UChicago requires to respond by March 21 and Visa processing is also a time consuming factor with me being an international student. Chances of CMU MCSF process are looking pale and high risk and I am excited about UChicago after reading the reviews, curriculum and placements. I would very much appreciate all your inputs to assess this "tail" situation
many thanks in advance!
