Tried the Backdoor Method...

<p>The new link works for me and all my information including my address is filled in, however the first 2 links still do not seem to work…do you think i’m in???</p>

<p>Forget about the first two links - the first enrollment link only takes you to the last one, anyway (if you do it right). My son is accepted, so they all work - but believe me, the longer ones just take you to the camel versions of the same link.</p>

<p>Yes, you’re in, Teddy! Congrats!</p>

<p>thank you. ill be waiting for a package this week…i cant believe this, i hope this new link is reliable…however i dont see why i would be able to access it unless something was done towards my acceptance…thank you!!</p>

<p>Will the backdoor and or boxes on your page ALWAYS come up before you get the letter?</p>

<p>So today, after like a week of checking, my status went from forwarded to the being reviewed one. Then i checked the backdoor method and it worked for the SIR one (the one with the deposit) and it worked but the the rsvp method did not work??</p>

<p>Does this mean i got accepted???</p>

<p>I’m so nervous :S</p>

<p>adi2010…sounds like you are in!!</p>

<p>Tentative Congratulations.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot tornados :slight_smile:
that good to hear :)</p>

<p>and good luck to you i hope you get into your first choice school</p>

<p>yo my backdoor thing worked and i went from fall grades to forwarded (friday) and then forwarded to under review (today) and my enrollment thing works… and i know that housing is first come first serve so I’m wondering if I should go on the USC housing website and get going on that application… Since the 45 application fee is non binding I should probably do it as soon as possible right? any thoughts as to how i should proceed?</p>

<p>For those of you who can’t make the link work - what are you getting? Yesterday I got a graphic to click on, but then it went to an error page. Today I’m getting a sign-in that won’t take our logon. I’m assuming that means my son has not yet been accepted.</p>

<p>it still doesn’t work… my guess is that it is not happening</p>

<p>I’ve about lost hope for my son too. And he has really good stats - I thought it would be relatively easy for him to get into USC.</p>

<p>I have checked my status nearly everyday since I applied, and I officially can’t take this anymore. </p>

<p>I have been forwarded for over 6 weeks after having the “we have complete a preliminary review” status, and before that, the “we are reviewing” status. </p>

<p>Yet, people on here are JUST getting the forwarded status and the link works for them, but still not for me. </p>

<p>I log in only to see the oh so familiar “forwarded” status, sitting there a little too comfortably. “I’m gonna be here a loooong time, kid. Mwahahaha” he says to me. Yes folks, my status can talk. </p>

<p>Then, I read posts about the Backdoor Method working for some people. “Just maybe…” I think to myself, “…just maybe”. </p>

<p>And for the millionth time, I go to my bookmarks to find the Enrollment link. Meanwhile, an upbeat, victorious and hopeful sounding tune starts to play in my head as I navigate and click the link. </p>

<p>Then, the “unauthorized” message comes up, and that victorious tune immediately transforms into the “blah blah” Ke$ha song, causing me to ravage around my house for a gun to…well you get the picture.</p>

<p>Anway, after waiting all this time, I’m realllllly sure I got rejected. I’ve had three different “review” statuses, and I’m honestly not so qualified an applicant that USC needs to spend more reviewing me. I just want my decision to come, whatever it may be, so I can move on with things. </p>

<p>Any by move on with things, I mean APPEAL BABY!. Mwahahahaha!! YEAHH FIGHT ON ******s! =D</p>

<p>The backdoor method worked for my son. He applied to Marshall.</p>

<p>did the backdoor method work for anyone in the east coast?..</p>

<p>My son’s status was at ‘received fall grades…’ then went to ‘forwarded’ on Monday and is now at ‘being reviewed by the admission committee’ today but the back door link doesn’t work. Not sure what to think. Hoping he’ll hear something soon.</p>

<p>A_Procrastinator - ahahaha you LITERALLY just described my life of the past month. yet somehow, i STILL go nuts over the mail every. single. day. haha good luck to you!</p>

<p>so do you guys have any idea when the actual envelopes will be mailed out next?
because my backdoor link worked. however, i still havnt received anything in the mail.
im dying!</p>
