Is the U of MN Twin Cities Campus really that hard to get accepted to?

Hey, I would prolly like to do bio, and I hear that that U of MN Twin Cities Campus has a great sciences program, but I also have heard that recently they have really toughed up on admissions. Like you have to be the top of your class, get a great SAT score, and have a 4.0 GPA. Im just curious if these are true.

Thanks!

    It isn't hard to get into CLA which is the College of Liberal Arts. You can major in biology there if you are not accepted to CBS which is the College of Biological Sciences. My sister got into CBS and her stats were:

    4.5 GPA Weighted

    Many Activities

    Worked at Office Depot for two years (this money is actually her spending money)

    30 ACT

    That was two years ago when the admissions were hard, but easier. Now because the university has to cut costs they are accepting less applicants. So what you recently have heard is basically true.
