What are the chances of getting an interview for Oliver Wyman if my school isn’t on their target list?

You'll need either a stellar resume - one that stands out from the rest that are submitted into the online application - or a referral.

I'm not sure how it works for a student. I assume you interned at EY and are about to start your senior year.

When I was a junior employee at OW, I referred an experienced hire from IBM and they did get an interview. I sent my referral in after the person had submitted their online application. That was a couple years ago though.

I got one ( non-target mba )

I applied online without any referrals or connections at the firm. About a week later received an invitation to take a personality/fit test. A couple days after taking that I received an interview invite via email. Ultimately I cancelled the interview since by that time I had already received a FT offer somewhere else that I was happy with.

Going out on a limb I’d just say they liked my resume. Good GMAT and summer experience at a peer firm probably helped. Trust me, I don’t check any diversity boxes.

Pretty slim. I went to a target and many people I knew that applied didn't get interviews.

Get a referral from the right geo. European here, happy to help if that fits.

Started a new job 7 months ago. There’s been a hiring freeze and it seems they canned the recruitment team. Things seems to be slowing down drastically in the span of a week.

Also, would me making my exit to another role that I might leave in a 8 months bite me in the ass down the line? Do I just grab anything in the interim?
