Dreamupsided0wn touched us all.

<p>I cannot tell you how impressed I am with your heart, soul, and spirit. I truly believe that USC has made a huge mistake here. I am certain your SCA portfolio was amazing. Your organizational skills are without a doubt the best I have ever seen. Your support of everyone here...just incredible. I am stunned, I feel sick to my stomach and it makes me want to cry. You deserve so much more. I cannot believe you were rejected.</p>

<p>This is the hardest news I have heard on CC. Please appeal. And to everyone out there who can help her out with wording the appeal, do so. She is amazing and there isn't a single person here that would not agree with that.</p>

<p>Anything we can do we will. We could even all write a mass letter or something showing her devotion and hopefully inspire somebody within the usc admissions office for appeal. Its worth a shot. Anything for a DREAM…</p>

<p>I will write a letter. When you find out the address where you send appeals, seriously let us know. I will definitely write a letter of support.</p>

<p>hey, and even if it doesnt work out, you’ll still be amazing in the future</p>

<p>dream says that she is incredibly touched and that she wishes she could get on the internet from where she is. but she will be back on soon.</p>

<p>Same here! I’ve never had any personal interaction with dream, but from her posts I can see that she’s an amazing individual, and I would certainly love to have her as a fellow USC student. Don’t give up, and we CC’ers will surely help you appeal should you choose to do so! (Please do!)</p>

<p>Dream needs to send an appeal package. They need all the info requested (personal info sheet, personal statement why appeal is requested, latest transcript) all in a single envelope. Deadline is May 12, 2010. </p>

<p>She could print this thread - we just have to get the word out. There’s plenty of CC’ers who would not hesitate to post their support.</p>

<p>Or perhaps there should be a new thread called USC: Please review your decision re:dreamupsided0wn or USC: Please reconsider dreamupsidedown or something like that and then she can print it and enclose it in the envelope? </p>

<p>Suggestions???</p>

<p>I, for one, cannot believe this incredible individual was overlooked by USC. </p>

<p>Just let us know what you decide dream, and we’ll be there to support you!!! :)</p>

<p>BTW tornados, you touched us too…</p>

<p>Wow.</p>

<p>I just don’t know anymore.</p>

<p>Like I said in tornado’s case, I haven’t been around long enough to follow dream but in my limited time here, never have I seen such an enthusiastic and sanguine person.
I really saw the kind of person you were despite the fact that all that was presented to me(and the rest of us) was mere text.</p>

<p>Though I did not apply to the art division, it would really seem unfair to people like you if I were to get into USC now. And this is coming from me, who is probably seen as the most selfish, arrogant and immature prick the world has ever seen. (Not my words)</p>

<p>I’m not saying community colleges are bad but if anyone were to be more deserving of a school like USC, I will probably never meet that person.</p>

<p>I’ve always been somewhat skeptical of the “wherever you end up, you’ll excel” mantra but now I’m starting to believe in it (partially because I’ll have to).</p>

<p>If you want me to write a letter too, I’d be glad to do so.
Good Luck! Maybe we’ll meet someday, and when we do, the honor will be all mine.</p>

<p>P.S. don’t feel creeped out or anything, I’ve never written something like this before. It really goes to show the emotions that you evoke.</p>

<p>Dream has my cooperation with any appeal she writes.</p>

<p>petiza…awww, thank you from the bottom of my heart.</p>

<p>Dream, once you get this appeal done, just PM all of us your USC ID # and we can put that on our letters. You don’t have to risk giving us your real name just in case there are some real creepers on here. They can track who you are, we will just put, “Dreamupsided0wn USC ID#910755548”, or whatever it is.</p>

<p>I’m totally down for that.</p>

<p>Count me in.</p>

<p>Dream, print out the entire Cinematic Arts thread you created. All 1,366 posts (296 by Dream). Include that in your appeal package. With all our letters, your appeal will weigh in at about 37lbs.</p>

<p>We NEED you here!</p>

<p>Deadline is April 12.</p>

<p>Ooops - my bad - thanks for correcting me, werty1992! :)</p>

<p>oh my goodness I am so sorry dream. You’re clearly a very smart, intuitive, and above all, HELPFUL young lady and I am really quite sad that you were not admitted. Please add my name to the petition, or whatever I can do to help, I will.</p>

<p>Aw you guys! :D</p>

<p>I just got online at the library and I can’t believe there’s a thread about this. Thank you so much for your support guys, I really appreciate it. I’m almost done with the first draft of my appeal letter so if anyone wants to see it just PM me. If you guys want to write a letter or something I can give you my USC ID. I have to go but I’ll be home in about a day and I seriously cannot wait to see how this turns out. No matter what happens though, I love all of you guys. :D</p>

<p>I’m sure there are other people that are better with words than me, so if someone is interested in making an online petition, there’s the link.</p>

<p>Hey everyone. I’m officially home. :slight_smile: Wow… well, if anyone wants to write a letter, I really don’t know… the address is:</p>

<p>USC Office of Admission
Admission Decision Appeal
700 Childs Way
Los Angeles, CA 90089-0911</p>

<p>I know they said a single packet but… that’s for traditional appeals, right? :stuck_out_tongue: If you still want to help but don’t have time to write a letter, emails would help too. Really, I don’t have much else besides my appeal letter. If anyone wants my USC ID, just PM me and I’ll gladly give it to you. I’ll throw in my name for free, too.</p>

<p>You guys have no idea how much this means to me. The fact that true members of the Trojan family want me to be a part of their family is unbelievable. </p>

<p>Fight on, guys. No matter what.</p>

<p>I want to help but…how do you PM?</p>

<p>Signed,</p>
