<p>I got my letter around 1 pm today. I was pretty depressed. But then I got accepted to Penn. Today was an emotional roller coaster. I actually would’ve gone to USC had I gotten the trustee, but my decision has been made SO MUCH EASIER!!! UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA 2015!!!</p>

<p>I have no idea why I suddenly noticed this … I returned to this thread to check out Viterbi successes … but post #74 left several people off the list. I didn’t check for a complete list (I’ll admit), but I did copy and paste from the post #73 , which is more complete than #74 . And I added Steverino back in.</p>

<p>Just curious : Any internationals in the ‘bumped-up’ category ? </p>

<p>A total of 49 reporting results</p>
<p>29 received the scholarship for which they interviewed = 59.2% 22.4% 18.4%
<p>No students who interviewed reported that they did not receive at least a Director’s scholarship.</p>
<hr>
<p>In all, 81.6% of those who interviewed were awarded at least the scholarship for which they interviewed or were bumped up. </p>

<p>Thank you for doing all this amazing number crunching!! Your help has been invaluable throughout the cycle!</p>

<p>First post–hoping I did this right. Sorry to include after your calculations, alamemom, as your posts have been especially helpful. D received the Presidential scholarship and is thrilled to be going to USC!</p>
<p>Congratulations! Adding to the thread now is great and VERY helpful - anyone else who hasn’t posted results, please do so - we can just do another calculation as the additional results are posted. (And thanks for the kind words troikamom and pertolet
<p>I want to extend a special thank you to those who posted the not-so-happy news of being bumped down. That is very helpful information for future applicants, and I know it isn’t easy to make that post. I feel strongly that it has nothing to do with you as an individual or an applicant, it has much more to do with the number of invited candidates who attend the interviews - and there were more than ever this year. I corresponded via PM with several of those bumped down, and I can say without question that every one of them earned and deserved the scholarship for which they interviewed.</p>
<p>If any people from the USC admissions office happen to be looking in on this thread, I have a suggestion for the scholarship invites: Because there appears to be about a 40% chance that a candidate may be bumped up or down - and some of them down to Director’s, it seems that inviting candidates to interview for “a scholarship” rather than specifically Trustee or Presidential would be a more positive way of handling it. That way a Director’s scholarship of $4,000 would be good news instead of a bitter disappointment for a wonderful applicant who thought $40,000 was within reach.</p>
