My son got stickers the other day and a T-shirt yesterday. I am 100% certain the T-shirt was because he went to a Zoom meeting about Honors College. He had to “register” for that virtual session. I don’t read anything into getting this swag. His stats are good (ACT 31, 12 APs) but there are lots of kids with much better.
My D applied RD on 11/08 and just submitted her Honors college application just now.
Any idea how long will it take before she receive decision for admission and Honors college?
Thanks and good luck to all !!!
According to the application page:
“Honors College Decisions: All decisions released by mid-February”
Anyone know when decisions come out for EA?
Got the stickers first and now the t-shirt. My son did attend the honors college session, so the t-shirt is likely from that, tho there was no note in the package.
“Mid-December”
My OOS D received a t-shirt today. The card thanked her for attending their Carolina Elite Virtual Event. It was gray/size small. She wondered if all the t-shirts were the same. I think she may have given her t-shirt size on the application, but not sure.
Hoping to hear soon… went in test optional here!
Mine finally got his today too. Boy that mail was slow.
Great job by U of SC Honors College. It definitely put a smile on his face to open!
I got stickers in the mail today!
My daughter is a freshman in the Honors College at USC, and she really likes being a part of this group. She is also very social, played a lot of sports and is from a small town and a small school. Academically she is thriving. She has met many wonderful friends in class and loves living in the Honors Dorm. I feel a variety of students live in the Honors Dorm giving everyone an opportunity to find their group of friends.
@jsingl Are the honors dorms suite style? Same for capstone honors?
My daughter received stickers yesterday. She attended a general admission virtual event over the summer and that’s it.
Yes, the honors dorm is suite style. My daughter lived there last year (in 650 Lincoln this year) and loved it. She met a great group of friends and there was a lot of social stuff for her to do. My son is a high school senior this year and we are anxiously waiting to see if he gets into U of SC and the honors college as well. Good luck to everyone!
My daughter applied EA as well (and the Honors College). She’s got three schools at the top of her list and UofSC is one of them!
I believe they sent out t-shirts to everyone who did a virtual visit, tour, or something along those lines. But best of luck to you regardless!
Anyone out there receive a decision, or know of anyone who’s heard anything yet?
@ashley41 we have not. Was hoping we’d see something soon indicating an exact date for notifications. Last I checked it still says mid-December.
They’re keeping us in suspense then I guess? It seems that in previous years some decisions trickled out earlier. Oh well…we’ll have to hang in just a little longer.
Do they typically release them all in the same day whether you get accepted or denied?
