<p>I got my acceptance mail today. I am a music major. I don't know how my family is going to afford USC if I don't get scholarships. My admittance package didn't include any information regarding scholarships... did yours? And I heard that Thornton School gives its own scholarships to music students. Does anyone know more about this? or...are there any Thornton students/applicants here??</p>
<p>Did you apply for the December scholarship deadline?</p>
<p>Yes, I did.</p>
<p>what state do you live in?</p>
<p>California (Orange County)</p>
<p>Talk with your HS counselor & everyone you know about outside scholarships available in your community. They can add up & tend to have fewer applicants than national ones.
My S was getting info about scholarships from USC thru April & May. He got one merit award from the School of Engineering.<br>
Have you turned in all your FAid forms? Deadlines are important & the sooner your family gets in all the info (even estimates if you don't have the actual numbers), the better your chances of getting a better package.</p>
