<p>i got admitted to spring 2008 :/
do you guys know anything (advantages/disadvantages) about going in as a spring admittance?</p>
<p>im asking myself, does it worth it</p>
<p>i got in for the spring 08 also</p>
<p>dont you feel.. kind of crappy? hahah :/ i was really happy
and i saw the "srping 2008" sign and
i got :[</p>
<p>yeaaaaahhh but at least its not rejection</p>
<p>My D was also offered admission in the Spring to Annenberg and is terribly upset. She was admitted to GW business school and Skidmore among others. I feel she should wait and go to USC because of the reputation of Annenberg but she is ready to throw in the towel and choose a school that will take her in the fall. What do you think of her choices? We are all confused and upset at this point. I think this could be a wonderful opportunity to do something fun and productive in the fall. I want her to understand that she should feel good about the acceptance to USC</p>
<p>that's like me :/ i got accepted to 5 year pharmD program for UoP
and i dont konw. it seems like uop is appreciating me more than usc! haha</p>
<p>same thing here for d- I never thought of this as a possible outcome. just wondering if anyone else in same situation would mind posting their stats.</p>
<p>the downside would be that it would almost be like transferring in--and I would think that mid-year could be an especially tough time to be the new kid on the block</p>
<p>we were very surprised</p>
<p>it does open up some interesting options for fall, I suppose</p>
<p>would love to hear from anyone who actually took this option in previous years</p>
<p>also, did any of you apply by the Dec. 11 deadline?</p>

General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc:</p>
<p>when did you apply, conf?</p>
<p>USC says there are 400 freshman who will be admitted in the spring so there is a sizeable group to bond with. Anyone else admitted to Annenberg in the spring? I don't know if my d would join a sorority - but how do you rush in the spring? Will there be any programs for the spring admits to visit the campus during the fall and feel like a part of campus? I know that Cal has special programming for spring admits besides orientation.</p>
<p>I wonder if they will actually end up with 400 enrolling in the spring, though.</p>
<p>What are your d's other options? Is she, by chance, in Annenberg? Perhaps we can have a group therapy session!</p>
<p>could you pm me pls? thx</p>
<p>Hey guys, don't lose hope. When I was as incoming freshman at USC one of my friends from HS was a Spring admit. But one day (after she accepted Spring admittance), she got a call from USC and they said there was room in the Fall freshman class and she could join it if she wanted. :)</p>
<p>candy- can you enable yourself to receive a pm? I answered you but it won't go thru..thx</p>
<p>2+2---when did they call her to ofer fall?</p>
<p>it just feels a little like limbo somewhere in between an acceptance and a waitlist</p>
<p>I though I did . Let me try again</p>
<p>This was back in 2005, so I can't remember exactly. But I'm fairly certain it was before senior year ended (Which would mean before mid-June). My guess is that they wait till they see how many Fall admits accept by May 1st, and then afterwards offer spots to Spring admits if there is room.</p>
<p>I'm assuming spring admits would have priority over waitlists...</p>
<p>Wait so if you get in spring, you just sleep until 08?</p>
