<p>I'm curious why it says this because I thought we are supposed to hear around May 15th but it says we can possibly find out in ten days.</p>
<p>how would it relate to original applications? the ones in who applied for Dec deadline hear first? i did that, but the office of admissions didnt get it til a few days ago. aslo, do you hear from mail if its before may 15?</p>
<p>No... I mean the text "The committee has acted on your application, and we have mailed notice of the decision. If for some reason you have not received our written notification, we will be happy to provide the results over the phone 10 days after your letter was mailed."</p>
<p>likely is in relation to your original app.</p>
<p>well...may 15 is coming up...did anyone appeal who felt they had a legitimate shot..or just because they felt like they had nothing to lose by doing so..</p>
<p>I have conflicting feeling on it. I think I really made myself stand out a lot as well as I showed a lot of dedication... I made it known I knew my grades were not substantially better, nor did I win anything big, but I showed that USC is where I really want to go--I said I would transfer if I had to to get there--and and I added some extra impressive things. So its not just a I really want to go and I won some arbitrary award type thing, which makes me hopeful. But I also did it because it shows dedication which may help if I have to reapply to transfer.</p>
