About an hour or two away from submitting! I DON’T KNOW
@mellyjune I will submit mine tomorrow!!! 
@stahboy GOOD LUCK!
I keep delaying submitting because after submission, theres literally nothing I can do other than wait (other than stalking this page all day… hahaha) :-SS but right now I can at least make edits and be active hahaha
@mellyjune I literally check this page every hour .-.
@mellyjune Yeah the only thing keeping me away from this page is my school work lol
@stahboy @et8818 the worst part is also because I don’t know when decisions are coming… like we get such a huge timeframe
I could literally stumble across my decision in late march/early april (most likely late april at the earliest because I’m not TTP) which is kinda soon or be twiddling my thumbs until mid july (AHHHH I CANT TAKE IT)
I probably won’t get a SGR though because I’m a junior applicant so I guess I’ll have a decision by June 1st and not later than that
P.S. please take me USC… :)>- :-& [-O<
@mellyjune I’m a sophomore applicant so I got a long wait 
im also a sophomore applicant, is there even 1% chance that il be accepted directly without getting an SGR?
@Skepta what’s so bad about a sgr haha and they most likely will ask for one since you’ll be completing important classes this spring
@et8818 yea true. I worked hard fall quarter got a 4.00, so as long as i do the same for spring should not be a problem! Good luck to you, hope this fall we will both be students at USC.
@et8818 @skepta its not so much that getting an SGR itself is bad, its just the wait that comes along with it
Honestly having the chance of getting an SGR is nice because you have the opportunity to change their minds by presenting them with more information about yourself instead of getting flat out rejected. Also getting a SGR doesn’t mean that they’re on the fence about you either, its just that you won’t have as much to look at compared to other applicants who have more stats and have spent more time in college and therefore have more things to show like courses taken, its more to level the playing field by getting more information.
For me, its really either acceptance or denial, nothing in between (most likely as an incoming junior)
Obviously the acceptance part is just WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO but otherwise its really sad and disappointing, but I guess is the upside is I’ll just know instead of suffering the wait longer…
Last year I had a 1800 SAT and 3.0 HS GPA wrote about how I turned my grades around from freshman to senior year but I failed Calc 1 senior year. Got rejected. I ended high school senior year with a 4.0 weighted tho and started CCC. Took 20 units for fall 2016 across 2 different California community colleges. 5 classes (16units) were USC Core equivalencies and one was the first level of English (one before WRIT150 equivalent, but transferable for USC unit credit). Got 3 As and 3 Bs. English was A, Calc was B. Winter taking History (transferable, 3 units) and spring I’m doing 17 units across 2 schools again. Calc 2, WRIT150 equivalent of English, 1st level of Engineering Physics, Arabic 1 and Beginning Guitar. All transferable courses. I wrote about how getting rejected only made me work harder and I would visit USC to visualize me there to get me motivated etc. So how am I looking? Some days I feel good about it, some days I feel terrible just wanted to get input.
If it helps, my fall classes were philosophy(A), art history(A), international relations(B), English(A), Calc 1(B) and human geography (B). and I am applying for Viterbi Aerospace.
@CairoLife I think you have a good shot if you keep your GPA up, you have lots of GEs and the major requirements completed. Good luck!
I’m currently a junior by my school’s standards, does that mean I wont get an SGR even if I’m taking 3 GE’s this semester? I’d prefer an SGR to a flat out rejection because I can pull my GPA up to a 3.69 if I make all A’s by the end of this semester.
Hi guys! So I applied for Marshall last year but I got rejected. I’m trying to apply again this semester. However, I already transferred from CCC to a university in Texas. I dont really like it so I decided to apply again to Marshall. So I wonder if there’s a chance that I got in. I have a 3.91 overall GPA during my college year and I am a junior transfer.
@quin97 you have a good GPA but it really depends on the amount of GE’s and major-related courses completed
I feel like when you’re just transferring to one school, there isnt much to do on college confidential. I miss those days when you can look at threads from 10+ schools… just a thought
Honestly it’s difficult chancing each other as transfers because most of us are in similar groups in terms of GPA and GEs (relatively) as always in college acceptances there requires some degree of luck in addition to talent and intelligence… that’s the hard part - getting rejected, not because you’re lacking, but because there’s simply not enough space which reduces the amount of control we have over the situation.
I don’t know how I’m going to get through this semester which is one of the reasons I was hesitant to apply to transfer from another 4-year which makes it a little bit harder to get in (supposedly but there’s also a smaller percentage of people who apply from other 4 years compared to cc) anyway… good luck to us all! Only a few (long) months to go! Wooo we can do it!
@mellyjune yeah not many people apply from 4 year institutions, I talked to my USC advisor and she said the transfer process is tailored to community college transfers. However, looking at the stats of 2015 and 2016, the number of acceptances of 4 year transfers is increasing compared to CC.
Also my advisor couldn’t tell me what courses transferred or not because few if any students transfer from the school I am going to. So I’m lost on how many credits I have and what will transfer but I’ll know if I’m accepted.
