CONGRATULATIONS: USC Admitted Class of 2018 with Merit

<p>Not until 3/26 per the dean of admissions at Explore (you can find this same discussion in few other threads).</p>

<p>@Madbean or Alamemom: Are scholarship decisions being mailed next week along with the regular decision applicants? I read somewhere that the scholarship decisions would be mailed on 3/20?</p>

<p>Most likely date right now is 3/21, meaning we’ll hear from CA people tomorrow if the rumors are true. If not, then most likely 3/26!</p>

<p>Heads up-- scholarship notifications are now posted on USConnect as of this morning. Congrats to my fellow Presidential Scholars, as well as Trustee Scholars.</p>

<p>Time to update with your results! </p>

<p>My D got Presidential.</p>

<p>My S got a Presidential Scholarship! We are thrilled.</p>

<p>On USConnect, is that under Admission, under Financial Aid, or something else? I don’t see anything there about the Presidential our son interviewed for.</p>

<p>@socaldad it is under admission letter a new link has been added! good luck!!</p>

<p>OK, I finally found the letter. Very confusing website. Why would acceptance letters be under Application Status Check, which says to go there to see if you have submitted everything? Wouldn’t it make more sense to put it under Admission Documents? Or add a heading like Letters We Have Sent You.</p>

<p>Our son interviewed for and received the Presidential.</p>

<p>@SoCalDad, then check application status check and there is a link I think it is above your admission letter , something to the effect of scholarship notification. Good luck!!</p>

<p>It’s the Presidential for our daughter. :)</p>

<p>Hmm released a day after UCLA decisions? Nice :stuck_out_tongue:
Congrats to everyone! :)</p>

<p>I’m so excited and grateful!! Trustee scholar in Viterbi for Computer Engineering and Computer Science. Fight on :)>- </p>

<p>Received Presidential!</p>

<p>I found out I got the Dean’s scholarship back in January; is there still a chance I can receive a bit more merit money? And do you know when/how I’d find out that information? </p>

<p>Most of the smaller merit scholarships show up on the financial aid package during the first two weeks of April (although some have reported even late April $$). You may also get an email or letter in the mail first-- which alerts you to look for them. You will have something to formally sign and accept for the Dean’s and for any of the smaller amounts (unless things have changed).</p>

<p>Thank you @camomof3! However, I did not file the FAFSA because I do not qualify for need-based aid…that doesn’t change anything right? </p>

<p>@meerkatt-- doesn’t change anything. We also didn’t file financial aid forms. The merit scholarships still show up on the financial aid tab though. </p>

<p>The only thing that shows up on my financial aid tab is</p>

<p>"We have not received any application documents for federal or USC need-based financial aid programs. </p>

<p>To initiate an application for federal or USC need-based financial aid, please submit a FAFSA. We will notify you if any additional documents are required. </p>

<p>If you wish to be considered for only a Federal Parent PLUS Direct Loan, please submit a FAFSA and complete an Enrollment & Housing Form. </p>

<p>If you are not applying for financial aid but are expecting to receive a scholarship, please direct any questions to the department or organization issuing the scholarship."</p>
