<p>In the mail today was a nice big package with USC on the front. I was excited until I realized that I had known for 2 months that due to the financial crisis flushing away all my savings I wouldn't be able to attend.</p>
<p>Oh well that's what you pick safeties for I guess.</p>
<p>Is it bad enough that you still can't attend even with financial aid? USC gives pretty good aid or so I've heard...</p>
<p>I could attend but I will be pretty heavy in debt which I don't want to be.</p>
<p>My dad is in a pretty high income bracket so the financial aid isn't overwhelming</p>
<p>Ohh...that sucks ):</p>
<p>I'm hoping for a good financial aid package. I will most likely attend if I get in, unless the financial aid package is horrendous (which it shouldnt be since USC's financial aid program is good and there is a significant difference between my EFC and the sticker price). I love USC and I plan on attending if I get in hopefully :)</p>
<p>aw I'm sorry :( but stay positive, because you might get good financial aid.</p>
<p>I'm hoping for a good one, too! Otherwise I cannot attend! Nooooooooo! ):</p>
<p>I won't be able to attend due to financial reasons, I think =[</p>
<p>Too bad.. I even got in as an international applicant.</p>
<p>Does anyone know when they release the financial aid packages? The UC ones are out, and I'm waiting on USC..</p>
<p>Beginning of April.</p>
<p>Ugh I don't think I can wait until april. I want it nooooooow :(</p>
<p>UCs gave me really good financial aid, which was a surprise. Hopefully SC will do the same. Since I got rejected from LA, SC is even more appealing now.</p>
<p>USC is really generous with financial aid, if you need it. Otherwise, there are lots of scholarship opportunities available! :)</p>
<p>i REALLY need financial aid if i wanna convince my parents. marshall acceptance, and i have a NMF guarantee already, but its not enough.</p>
<p>I'm just praying for decent aid.
got my UCLA package today and its not that bad... just hoping that my USC one is better!</p>
<p>beeish, how did you manage to get fin aid from UCs if your from Sydney?
I'm from UK and didnt think I'd get any.</p>
<p>He/She is probably an American Citizen.</p>
<p>I'm living in Canada right now but am still eligible for fin aid because of citizenship.</p>
<p>awsomo is right, I'm a US citizen, I just live in australia</p>
<p>we have to wait till April to find out?? ughh excitement is killing me :/</p>
<p>the whole “USC will give you what you need” in terms of financial aid, would that be them giving you mostly everything you can’t afford depending on your EFC?</p>
<p>of course, not EVERYTHING. but a decent amount?</p>
