Ack! What does this mean? (Status update...)

<p>btw if anyone is still interested, i got the DHL email and my status changed from “forwarded” to “Your application is being reviewed by the admission committee. We will mail notification of their decision by April 1. If for some reason you don’t receive our written notice, we will be happy to provide the results over the phone beginning April 11th.” today</p>

<p>@oceanangel,</p>

<p>same thing happened to me, I got the DHL email and the exact same status as you.</p>

<p>what time today did ur status change from “forwarded” to “being reviewed” ?</p>

<p>At around 9:15 am est, the USC site was down for a few minutes. It was during this time that the status for S changed from forwarded to being reviewed. It was on forwarded from late January until this morning. Prior to the USC site going down, and just after it came back up a few minutes later, he was able to access the deposit page. No letter today on the east coast, though it was not expected! It is the USPS after all. Still crossing our fingers that access to the deposit page with a pre-filled out form with his name and USC ID is a good sign.</p>

<p>Question for people that have been trying to use the “backdoor method” (enrollment deposit) to see if they got accepted: </p>

<p>From what I’ve observed, there have been people that have… </p>

<p>1) Clicked the links and the links “didn’t work” (assuming nothing shows up on the page?)</p>

<p>2) Clicked the links and “they worked” (assuming the “Make deposit box” showed up) but when they clicked the “Make Deposit” box it says “User is unauthorized”. </p>

<p>3) Clicked the links and they worked, and clicked the “Make Deposit” box and it also worked, thus revealing acceptance (?)</p>

<p>I guess my question is if there is a difference between #1 and #2 as listed above. When people say “the links don’t work”, do they mean nothing showed up at all? If so, is this simply because they are using the wrong internet browser, or is nothing REALLY showing up at all? Because I’ve read posts saying “the links didn’t work yesterday, but they do today”. I’m not sure whether the poster was referring to the links showing nothing one day, then showing the “Make Deposit Box” the next day; OR the links have always showed the “Make Deposit” box but didn’t authorize access until recently. </p>

<p>I know that it takes up to 7 days for the links to work, and I should just be patient waiting for my decision. But I’m not patient, I’m anxious and desperate. If anyone has info regarding all this crap i just mentioned, PLEASE reply =]. THANKSS LOL</p>

<p>A_Procrastinator, Don’t for get to factor in those of us who don’t even have those links at all.</p>

<p>@A_Procrastinator</p>

<p>I know that for me, depending on what browser I use (Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer) it either says that I am not authorized OR it just shows up blank. So, I don’t really think there’s a difference between 1 and 2.</p>

<p>EDIT:</p>

<p>@tornados</p>

<p>I think he/she is referring to all those who don’t have the boxes show up on our homepages and therefore have to go through the “back door” way by copying and pasting the link into our URL bar.</p>

<p>the link just shows up blank for me. any suggestions?</p>

<p>@bbcc10</p>

<p>What web browser are you using? It only shows up for me when I use Internet Explorer.</p>

<p>Ive tried internet explorer firefox and safari and none of them work!</p>

<p>Refresh the page a few times? That did the trick for me!</p>

<p>PS. I was still unauthorized to view the page, nonetheless.</p>

<p>so i clicked on the enrollment box and it took me to the page. the page just says thank you and it says unauthorized</p>

<p>pfmichaels…I can only access the USC connect from Internet Explorer. I tried several times from Firefox and it said that the sight could not be accessed that way. I don’t have an enrollment or RSVP link. I tried the posted link that everyone uses while I was signed in on the connect program, but it said, webpage unavailable. I have no idea how anyone is seeing any of that. </p>

<p>If you figure out how someone can make the posted link work, or does every single person here except me have the enrollment and rsvp link? I just don’t get it.</p>

<p>skazu27, same here</p>

<p>Am I the only person here that does not have an enrollment box?? Geez…what’s with that?</p>

<p>oh and my status just changed from app being received and reviewed to fowarded to admission committee today</p>

<p>@tornados</p>

<p>Hmm…I’m not sure why it doesn’t work for you. But, I also do not have those boxes on my homepage, so I wouldn’t worry about it. Once again, I think people are reading too much into this thing. Some people on CC have received their admission letters, yet are still unable to log into that link. For the time being, I think all we can do is wait.</p>

<p>i dont have the enrollment box either, but i hav the other boxes though so we shudnt freak out 2 much just yet right? :-s</p>

<p>Thanks cajongrl and pfmichaels. I am just feeling left out, lol. But not stressed because if I got in, it would be a miracle. I love the Trojan family and would love to be a part of it. But, I can wait…I am ok with that.</p>

<p>Status changed from forwarded to this AFTER DHL:</p>

<p>Your application is being reviewed by the admission committee. We will mail notification of their decision by April 1. If for some reason you don’t receive our written notice, we will be happy to provide the results over the phone beginning April 11th.</p>
