Applying Question - Scholarship

Hi guys,
Excuse me if this is a dumb question

I am fortunate enough to be able to attend USC if I were to get in without any financial aid or scholarships. I heard a rumor that if you were to apply after the scholarship consideration deadline they look at your app differently. It kind of makes sense, and was wondering what you guys think. If no difference, I will apply before the scholarship deadline b/c who doesn’t wanna get a chance to get free money?? :slight_smile:

Never a dumb question. Always apply by December 1st scholarship deadline. Silly not to. You could say that an app is looked at differently one week to the next, no one really knows, but getting it in earlier also shows some commitment on your part imo. And then the holidays are sweeter, one less thing to worry about.
