I plan on applying, but since the deadline isn’t until June 1st I figured I would just wait a few weeks to see if I hear back before filling it out.

I figure if i wait further into May, I will be overwhelmed with finals, projects for my current classes. I had a little more time now so I took the opportunity to write my essay prompts

one recommendation letter is required so I would think about who you like to be your recommender

I was going to apply for it, but I saw it is only worth a max of $5,500 per year according to this: https://provost.sma.usc.edu/prog/norman_topping_freshman_application/, so I don’t think I will. $5,500 is not enough for my financial situation… BTW, I found out the move is a lot sooner than I thought it would be, late May. Rip me lol
I’m applying for it. Hopefully I get accepted into USC first lol I already have my letter of recommendation secured
Hopefully, the last wave will be around 20-21 May… I know thats late for alot of us but at least its not 31 May… and hopefully its a definite answer and not an SGR so we do not have to wait longer.

I believe the average is around $5500. The highest reward a Norman Topping applicant can receive is $10,000
Also, tails I think its a supplement to your financial aid package. I will verify for sure but I think you should still apply… it wouldnt hurt
to those already admitted, anyone got in for human bio?
“The undergraduate award is a maximum of $5,500 per academic year. The maximum graduate award is $10,000 per academic year.”
The $10,000 is the max for graduate students, the $5,500 is the max for undergraduate students.
ahh my mistake. My sydlexia got the best of me
Hey guys, there is a chance my A- might fall to a B+ so do you think that might hurt my chances of getting into USC? Because that course is Business Management and it is not a pre-req for USC and btw all my other courses are all A’s. So my business course is at an A- right now, which would make me end with a 3.94 gpa. However, if it were to fall to a B+, then I would have a 3.86. So what do you guys think do you think it could hurt my chances of admission if that were to only be my only B+? Please let me know, thanks I am just very nervous…
