~**Official USC Freshman Appeal Thread**~

<p>Good luck to all of you guys going to UCI, I know quite a few people who will also be attending. As for me, I’m going to UCSD. Maybe I’ll see some of you there.</p>

<p>Hopefully, we will all find something fabulous at the schools we will be attending. And if we really decide it’s just not for us, then transferring it is.</p>

<p>Hey nagooya, I’ve followed your passion from the get-go and was so hoping for a happy ending in the appeal process. Here’s the deal: the best path in life is not a straight line and while this chapter did not go your way, I have no doubt that life will bring amazing things to you. And I still hope some of these amazing things will be at USC. But the amazing part is inside you. USC would be lucky to share that.</p>

<p>hey nagooya: i feel for you…haha I was also rejected twice and will be attending UC Irvine… USC was my dream school but nothing I can do now =/</p>

<p>Sorry to hear about the appeals guys! I hope to you see you guys transfer in the fall of 2010!</p>

<p>any1 get accepted that got the email around 7 pm pacific time ?</p>

<p>um…does anyone knows what SCP is (structured curriculum program)? because apparently the appeal says that
i was admitted into scp…is this for people who they think will fail/do poorly???</p>

<p>Thanks you guys. Everyone on here is soooo supportive. :slight_smile: It seems like many of us will be attending UCI in the fall. I’ve already made my appointment to meet with the adcom to discuss transferring so I hope that works out… hahaha. Good luck to all of you and i hope you enjoy your freshman year of college in the fall!</p>

<p>Congrats to everyone who got in!! To all those who didn’t, if USC is really the right school for you we’ll see you in 2010. </p>

<p>Also, all you new spring admits should join the spring admit facebook group. It has got around 100 people in it and I think it will be a great way to communicate when the spring gets closer.</p>

<p>the scp is just as good as an admittance. u just have to meet 2-3 times a semester with someone to check ur grades.</p>

<p>Good luck to all of you- wherever you go. I feel that the students on this forum are the go-getters of the world and will do well in life!</p>

<p>Please post your decisions on the Stats Only page- thanks!

<p>rejected again :(</p>

<p>nagooya-yeah i REALLY thought you would get it</p>

<p>but lets party it up at irvine until you transfer out yeah?</p>

<p>Hahaha, yes! Are you going to transfer after a year?</p>

<p>so I still havent heard back from usc yet. and my last status update was may 14…
but seems like everyone who heard back yesterday got accpeted…so should i just expect to be rejected again,?
it’s so weird cuz they said they would let us know on the 14th via email, but i still havent heard back yet. i called the admin office but they r closed today.
guys. im so nervous, but yet i dont think i got accepted.
did any of you guys hear back today?</p>

<p>yjpark,
Today was Commencement. Everybody was at the ceremony and celebrations.</p>

<p>I got in via appeal! </p>

<p>Spring Semester tho… so still considering…</p>

<p>I got rejected again.
im still sorta bitter tho because I really don’t know why.
I did full IB program, and had decent grades.
my gpa was 4.35 weighted
and I took 6 AP tests, passed all of them.
and my ACT score was 29. i took it twice, and my highest scores were</p>

<p>35 - math
31 - english
30 - reading
26 - science
12 - writting.</p>

<p>and I had over 200 community service hrs and was actively involved with my school events.
i started/organized/performed two big fundraisting rock concerts at my school to raise money for African children… which raised over $18,000.
i mean… i see my friends who got into usc with almost nothing… and that just makes me mad and weird .</p>

<p>So frustrating… sorry yjpark0226. You are right- it doesn’t make sense. Just know that you are not alone. There are many in your boat. Good luck wherever you decide to go.</p>

<p>Two students posted on Facebook they just received admission to SC on appeal. Both will be spring admits. One is from CA and one from CO.</p>

<p>i think one of those students on facebook uses CC.</p>

<p>I am really sorry to hear the news. My sense is that admissions is looking for very social, outgoing, leadership types-so if you decide to appeal, try to present a positive, well liked personality.</p>
