Thanks to those that mentioned the USPS notification. No news in today’s mail. ?
@BigHerms My son’? He’s a non-typical kid. 800/780 SAT’s, 800/770 SAT Subject tests, nationally ranked sailor, Iowa writers program, all IB/AP classes, and a 3.26 GPA. He’s a gamble for any college. Not sure how this will all shake out.
Nothing good coming in our mail today either. :((
Thanks so much!! I cannot believe that my USPS notifications took today off of all days! I was about to leave the office to go check. Have to stop this…
Wow @IngaB123 great stats! Is USC #1 school for y’all? Just curious. It’s #3 for my daughter. Texas Tech and The U are her others. But great stats awesome job!
Nothing in our USPS informed delivery today either, though I’m sure it’s too early today given we’re in PA and it’s 4 days til Christmas.
I keep checking my daughters portal but nothing different so far. Has anybody seen and indication of Honors event on their portal?
@IngaB123 did you try logging into your USPS dashboard? I didn’t get my email yesterday but my dashboard showed my mail
@BigHerms Thanks! Ggreat stats for testing, HORRIBLE for GPA, which is honestly the only thing I could have impacted!! USC isn’t #1, it’s more the safety, with Honors maybe like #6, but every other school is like the Hail Mary reach school. He figured since he got into USC (his brother is there too) early, he could basically just go after his reach schools without any downside. His favorite was U Chicago, but he was denied, and now it’s Colorado College, UPenn, Stanford, Duke, Columbia, Haverford, Georgetown, Cornell. it’s such a toss up for him. The U as in UT or UofM for your daughter? I could not get him to apply to Texas schools, which are tops in my book!
@IngaB123 University of Miami. We are from Texas and she despises TAMU and UT. Tech has a great Environmental Engineering program and it helps her older brother is there. Rice was not an option because of location. Here scores are not close to your son’s but she did ok. ACT 33 ( no super score, she didn’t retake it) and only 1410 on the SAT but 4.0 unweighted
@BigHerms WOW!! 4.0! That’s so awesome, and her scores are really strong. I’m sure she’ll do well. We just had a friend get into U of M, and your daughter is close to her profile I think. Good luck!
Just checked my informed delivery for today’s mail and nothing from USC. ?
OMG. Informed delivery shows a piece of mail from Columbia, SC but there’s no return address and the postage says “non-profit organization.” It looks more like an automated mailer than a letter. Guessing that’s not it, but now I’m dying of curiosity. There’s also a piece of mail that couldn’t be imaged. Fingers crossed.
Ooh… I have mail that couldn’t be imaged too. ? no portal changes though. I kinda like the snail mail suspense…
We have one that can’t be read too!! Hopefully it’s not some junk mail!!
Please let us know, if it was from USC. Good luck! I hate the wait. If doesn’t come today, we hope it comes on Monday. Merry Christmas
Good luck everyone! Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!
One question? Will you get a denial if you didn’t make it?
@BigHerms I’m guessing you won’t get a denial yet because there are two waves, with the second in January. Not sure if they send denials then or not.
Thank you @LoyolaMD91
Us too. And no portal update.
