My son hasn’t received a rejection letter, nor any type of communication saying he was selected as a top scholar. Should we assume he will not be selected?

Maybe he is close to the top of the list of alternates in the event anyone declines. Might as well hold out the hope!
Possibly! I did not apply to honors and def am not a candidate for Top Scholars, but was invited to scholar social. I am palmetto fellows and pretty sure any extra merit I will get will just be UofSC’s Palmetto Fellows add-on. I’m pretty sure a number of things spark the invite. Doesn’t seem super exclusive.

The Scholar social is for all merit scholarship recipients.
No email yet from Honors acceptance or rejection. No update in portal. Thoughts?
We did get merit aid notice with OOS acceptance letter & waiting till March to learn final amount.
I believe notices went out last year on 2/11 and on 2/15 the year before…around 5:30PM 
Honors notifications r out
It’s a “no” for my DS, but not surprised. Very competitive pool. Hope others got good news!!!
Did she get an option to accept a spot on the waitlist?
No. Is that an option? That would have been great:)
If they were giving her that option, it would’ve been in the second paragraph. I just mention it because my son only read his first paragraph and told me he was denied admission and clicked out of the portal quickly in frustration. However, he never read the second paragraph that stated he was offered a spot on the waitlist and , if interested, he should click on a link.
Your daughter is probably more thorough and less reactionary than my son, but never hurts to double check.
