<p>I agree mdcissp, but most of the families in our area end up having higher EFC’s because you have to make a decent living to afford to live down here. I don’t know what his friend’s EFC is, but I’m sure his aid won’t be as high as what the Trustee scholarship would have been. Hopefully he’ll get awarded the SCion and Alumni Scholarships he interviewed for along with the already awared Director’s.</p>
<p>Thanks madbean. You’re right, my son is competing with other Annenberg candidates, and I guess they will be looking at a completely different pool of kids. I think if we expect the worst and hope for the best then we’ll be happy with whatever we get. We had a nice surprise today too as my son got admitted to Cornell, but he will most likely turn it down to go to USC!!</p>
<p>Fight On!</p>
<p>CollegeFrenzy, I understand how you feel. Last year I was in agony waiting for my s’s scholarship and the disappointment when the letter finally arrived to tell us he was bumped down to Dean’s from Trustee. So good luck to your son and congratulations on him getting into Cornell!</p>
<p>Thanks bmom. It is really agonizing to wait not knowing, but I guess we should be happy that he had the opportunity to interview for the scholarship regardless of the result.</p>
<p>Fight On!</p>
<p>The different schools (ie. Cinema, Marshall, College of LAS…) work separately, so although a candidate from one school may receive a decision, a candidate from another school may not.</p>
<p>I believe that all Trustee/Presidential scholarship decisions will be sent out THIS week. Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>Just got today’s mail, but no letters received from USC. The waiting continues…</p>
<p>I GOT IT!!!
“I am delighted to tell you that you have been selected as a Trustee Scholar”</p>
<p>WOOOOO</p>
<p>good luck everyone else!!
(i’m in orange county)</p>
<p>AWESOME!!! Congratulations!!! You must be on cloud nine right now!!</p>
<p>If you don’t mind me asking, where do you live in orange county and what is your child’s major? I think they have been sending them out by department?</p>
<p>YES!! i got the Pres Scholarship!!!(orange county) I am sooo happy.
GL for all who are waiting</p>
<p>Congratulations thatsnotmyname and cyron1! Start up a new thread for the good news!</p>
<p>Congrats - did you interview for the scholarship you received or was it changed? Thanks!!!</p>
<p>Congratulations cyron1!!! You must be very relieved and very proud!!</p>
<p>What is your major?</p>
<p>I interviewed for the trustee with CLAS (spanish major) and i live in Irvine.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone! :)</p>
<p>ohuh… i didn’t get anything in the oc, so that probably is not good news:(
Congrats cyron1 and thatsnotmynam!!!</p>
<p>Check OASIS.</p>
<p>they have the scholarship decisions on OASIS??? i checked and there was nothing</p>
<p>D didn’t get letter yet, but OASIS shows she was awarded Trustee with $38,570/year.</p>
<p>Great. Thank you, USC.</p>
<p>I have a question. If I get the Presidential Scholarship, how much University Grant am I eligible for? Would the university grant be considered the 2500 max allowed or is it not the same because this is a grant and not a scholarship?</p>
<p>Which Oasis login?

That one? I’m so scared because mine shows nothing!</p>
<p>Maybe yours hasn’t been updated yet…
It should at least show any loans and cost of attendance junk.</p>
<p>Anyone know the answer to my question above ^ post?</p>
