<p>So, when does everybody think the next wave of admission/rejection notifications will come out? Last year, another wave of decisions came out the first week of March. That's in two weeks! As much as I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to go to USC (emphasis on the "REALLY") if they're gonna reject me, I'd rather have them reject me early, so that I can pick up the pieces and move on. Of course, I'll go into depression mode for a day or two, but at least I'll be able to move on earlier rather than late. lol! Anyways, is everybody ready for the first week of March?</p>
<p>I hope the next wave is soon and I am really hoping that I am in that way but who knows. I know I am with you on the rejection thing because I am super anxious waiting but I don't think rejections come till April.</p>
<p>I agree. I just need to know ASAP. If I don't get in I plan on transferring in, though. :)</p>
<p>Judging by the forum from last year it should be around the end of the first week of march.</p>
<p>mine still says "last updated 12/27"</p>
<p>should i be alarmed?</p>
<p>Mh475 what does your actual status say?</p>
<p>well from what i've gathered, there should be another wave either late feb. (in a week or two) or early march... followed by another wave in march, followed by final decisions (with rejections) late march/early april.</p>
<p>as for the status updates, i've also heard that they begin to become rather unreliable especially as it gets further into the admission process... but who knows? mine was just updated from "we have completed a preliminary review" to "your application is being reviewed by the admission committee" this morning. yet, it still has 01/13/2009 as the last update date, which is how everyone's is (everyone who got this same update today). there are quite a few people who have gotten this update today... i'm hoping it means we will hear soon. i also heard from a just a few people that their statuses didn't change and are still stuck on prelim review... don't really know what all this means...</p>
<p>i got an update on 2/03 saying there reviewing something along those lines is that mean ill hear soon?</p>
<p>I got the same status update sometime in the last few days... I want to know sooner than later! UGH! Haha.</p>
<p>haha seriously its stressing me out! I want to get in so bad hhah and do the campus visit. So i am seriosly hoping i am in the next wave. This is pure torture haha</p>
<p>My son's status was updated on Feb 12th and now reads, "We have received your mid-year grades and require no additional information at this time." Did anyone else receive this status?</p>
<p>nope mine still havent changed from what it was previously, but i did send in my mid year grades and admissions emailed me saying that they received it and will add it to my file</p>
<p>I guess they don't have a standard response to the status change. It seems as though different people are updating the status.</p>
<p>I sent my mid-year grades in and didn't get an email or a status change that mentions them receiving my mid-year grades. :/</p>
<p>well nagooya did you send it directly to the admissions office?
cause i sent mine to there admissions email and cause i asked them how i should send mine and they said i can send them in an apply to the email so i did and then they said they have recieved mine and will put mine in my file. maybe if you did it a different way thats why you havent got a response i am sure they have got them and alot of people i dont think are even sending theres in</p>
<p>Interesting. I did it online, the place where you can check your application status. </p>
<p>I want to get in NOW. Hahaha. I'm so tired of waiting!</p>
<p>oh thats probably why we both sent ours different ways!</p>
<p>I know me too! They really just know how to freak us out haha!</p>
<p>Yeah, I sent my midyear grades and didn't get any notification. Aw well, I hope we hear soon. This is really stressful. lol!</p>
<p>ha yeah tell me about it. its going to be even worse if march passes and i dont get in</p>
<p>I agree. If March comes and goes without a letter I'm going to go insane... :(</p>
