Merit Scholarships Class of 2020

Does anyone know when/how we find out about merit scholarships for USC? The only thing I’ve heard is around January/February. Thank you!

Last year, my sister found out about her merit scholarship through her official acceptance letter that she received in the mail. She found out during late January.

In the past (as it can always change), those invited to USC to interview for the full and half tuition scholarships- Stamps/Trustee/Presidential- were sent acceptances in late January/early February. Along with their acceptances, they had invitations to interview for these major scholarships. Some deans scholarships were also awarded at that time as well with early acceptances. Sometimes students received early acceptances with no mention of scholarships and then a couple days to weeks later, received the deans scholarship. There are also smaller scholarships sent with late March acceptances too.

In 2013, my oldest son received a letter of acceptance and scholarship finalist information dated January 23, 2013.
