<p>Ahh, the mid-term grades were mandatory…oops haha. My focus is on USC… USD’s more of a backup, especially since USD’s financial aid for transfers is so lacking.</p>
<p>Economics or Business with Math double major with a double minor in Japanese and Chinese.</p>
<p>Both USD and USC have great business programs. Both have their ups and downs, I am born and raised in San Diego and believe it’s the finest city in the world. However, USC has a vastly extensive network along with terrific financial aid.</p>
<p>I’ll also be applying to UCSD/USC for 2013-2014 haha (if i don’t get into USC this year), I just need to be close to home next semester because of family problems. </p>
<p>I’m simply afraid USD will just cost too much to stay! That’s the main reason! </p>
<p>My godmother worked for them and said every year they slowly take away your financial aid, so by senior year you’re paying a lot more than you used to. :|</p>
<p>That all makes sense plus aid too. Sorry to hear about family issues My parents went to USC so I know the networking is great. Have you been to campus much?</p>
<p>Yep yep sorry about that, USD’s campus is beautiful. It’s in Linda Vista, which is a meh neighborhood in San Diego, but the campus itself is gorgeous. My home is about a 10 minute drive away. Have you been? If not, I suggest you go right away…you won’t be disappointed. :)</p>
<p>I live in south Clairemont, so about 5 minutes away from LV. I have a bunch of friends that live in LV and there are SOME parts of it that aren’t very nice, but USD is in a pretty good part of it I guess…</p>
<p>LV is definitely not the worst neighborhood in San Diego (Ex: City Heights, Logan Heights, El Cajon, etc.), it’s just not one of the “nicer” ones either (Ex: La Jolla, University City, Torrey Pines, etc.).</p>
<p>I faxed to them couple of weeks ago. I got accepted last fall '11 but i forgot to differ my application and they told me to reapply for this fall 2012. I emailed E. Castillo and he told me that the number of applicants increased by 25% this year thats why its taking a little longer to here back from them.</p>
<p>I found out on tuesday that i got accepted! I saw the admitted tab on the portal. Today, I paid the deposit for fall. I called in the first week of April and requested a priority decision because I was accepted to other schools. and those other schools had their intent to enroll this month.</p>
<p>just found out i was accepted too!
for those of you who were accepted, how long did it take to find out about financial aid and how much did people get?</p>
