Does USC require a mid-year report?

<p>does usc require a mid-year report as part of the admission process?</p>

<p>essentially yes</p>

<p>does it weigh a lot? I mean, would they pretty much have already made up their minds before looking at the mid-year report just to make sure you are still on track, or do they consider the it a big factor of the decision?</p>

<p>Its not required, I got in without sending one. They may request it though.</p>

<p>they haven’t necessarily made up their minds, the Scholarship deadline is Dec 1st and my school is done Dec 18th so I am definitely sending mine (straight A’s 4.27)</p>

<p>does anyone know if those who are accepted in the first wave (late jan/early feb) are required to send in midyear report? i would think that since you’ve already been accepted, you won’t need to send anything in? or perhaps they would request it when they’re deciding whether to grant you the scholarship or not?
and the same question for the other waves? do you only send in a midyear report if they ask you to (whether for borderline applicants or dean’s scholarship hopefuls)? how likely is it that they would ask?
i’m just worried because i think i’m a top tier applicant (UW 3.8, W 4.75, sat 2310), but i’ll probably end up with a 3.3-6 gpa this semester, probably destroying any chance i may have had at getting in. thanks for any response!</p>
