<p>Is there hope for those who were just admitted? When and how would that information be coming out?</p>
<p>this is definitely a huge concern for me as well… fin aid/scholarships will play a huge factor in whether i attend or not…
from what I have found searching around on this site… alamemom (a reputable source from what ive read on here) posted this about a year ago:
“The scholarship notifications are not generally included in your acceptance packet. If you are getting a scholarship, the notification usually follows within a few days to a week. If you are a NMS and name USC as your first choice, you will receive the 1/2 tuition scholarship.”</p>
<p>so as far as i know we’ll have to wait and see if we receive anything in the upcoming days/week</p>
<p>Many of you have read about the large scholarships awarded to high achieving seniors who applied before the Dec. 1 deadline. USC or USC support groups give other scholarships to incoming freshmen. Some are based on need, merit or a combination of both.</p>
<p>All of these scholarship funds are not paid by the government. Loyal alumni, foundations, support groups or friends of SC have donated the money to assist students.</p>
<p>Here is a partial list. This does not include scholarships given by individual schools such as Marshall, Viterbi or Annenberg.</p>
<p>Some of these might already have been announced. These may be for one year only depending on the donor’s preference.</p>
