<p>It's kind of embarrassing for a university to have used the incorrect "then/than" on their website.</p>
<p>One of you guys should contact them.</p>
<p>USC</a> Financial Aid</p>
<p>Under Transfer Merit Scholarships</p>
<p>"Last year's recipients had an average GPA above 3.7 and had completed more then 30 transferable units at the time their applications were submitted."</p>
<p>Either you can't read or the people at USC read CC, because it clearly says "than" now.</p>
<p>awelex- Maybe someone actually called, haha. :)</p>
<p>Not just USC. Other top colleges do have this problem also, it was written in the news.</p>
<p>OP was correct - I remember noticing that too. FWIW, it was a much less glaring error than the one contained in the condolences letter Yale sent to its alums after rejecting their children this year :)</p>
<p>Nick, thank you for alerting USC of this error. USC apparently did fix the mistake.</p>
<p>@FauxMom: oh come on, now you NEED to tell us what mistake that was! :D</p>
<p>Darn, we tossed the letter and I can't remember what it said. Nothing horrifying - just a really obvious editing error that made one doubt the well-oiled machine that tries to keep Yale alums happy and loyal. Nobody's perfect, but that can be rather unsettling to the grammar police among us ;)</p>
