Admission Decisions Class of 2023

Same email to, and was also deferred

S got that same email last night, was deferred. When we log in, the 2019 financial aid says academic status not yet reviewed. Your status will remain “not yet reviewed” until the end of the Spring Semester

Concerning the USC FAFSA email you guys are talking about
 I could be wrong, so feel free to correct me, but when the FAFSA was completed, we were asked to list the colleges our kids were applying to so that our financial aid information could be sent to those colleges. These colleges then determine their aid amounts such as scholarships, grants, work study, etc
 based on the information listed on the FAFSA. I assume that you would get this email whether you were accepted, deferred, or denied because FAFSA doesn’t have any way of knowing this information and I would think USC sends out the email to everyone that listed them as a college of choice on the FAFSA. I wouldn’t read too much into it, other than it simply being a notification that your financial aid information has been received.

Anyone receive their aid packages yet?

Did any regular decision students get their decisions?? I heard some differed/ second review did and just wondering if any RD did too. Does anyone know the order of how they send them, like is it per major per location or just at random? Thanks best of luck!

We got our YES yesterday. We were early decision
no portal update.

I got that and my son received his acceptance yesterday- I think it’s a good sign!

We got that financial aid email also. My son was selected for second review. He just received his YES acceptance for business school today!

My daughter applied regular and just got the portal change saying she was accepted! Happy house we have here best of luck to everyone!!

Was deffered early action and havnt heard anything. A lot of kids in my school who have been deffered heard back recently and i havnt heard anything. getting a little nervous, any thoughts???

My daughter was put into secondary review
 the wait has been excruciating, as USC is her first choice. Hoping she hears something soon so she can make some decisions.

I completely agree @trpkmom 
my son was put on secondary review as well. I keep telling him to make a decision on a second choice so we can move forward in the event it’s not good news from USC. This whole process is extremely stressful :-S

This may be taking our obsession to another level, but can anyone tell us is the YES envelop shows up on the USPS Informed Delivery? Thinking it might be too big to scan, but curious! Judgement free please! LOL! Thanks!

we commited to my daughters second choice just to get a housing app complete. I figured If I lose $200 so be it

We had to secure housing/roommates w another school, on the chance she’s rejected. It’s been stressful.

I don’t believe that it shows up on the informed delivery, but usually there is a notation that an item that is not scanned is included in today’s delivery. @Badgersmom

@MB2231 Thank you!!

For those recently admitted from secondary review: did your portals change? From reading through the posts it seems that some did and some did not.

@MD8407SC I am wondering the same thing
wonder why some portals changed and others didn’t

Yes our portal changed like more than 24 hours after we received our letter. I thought that was a little strange. I think that the portal should be like the other schools showing your status and then send you an acceptance packet in the mail.
