can you share the wording that implies honors?
what language implies an honors invitation? Or where do you see it?
on the admitted page, on the right side, it says Honors Program
According to the website, it is sent out to the top 10% of applicants it looks like
Mine says this: The HONORS PROGRAM at USD has recently emailed you about joining our community. Please check your USD email for an important message from honors@sandiego.edu!
I haven’t gotten an email from them yet, though.
A very strange admittance process overall, especially considering there was no heads up. Congrats to all who have gotten in thus far!
Thank for explaining. I’ll bet those admitted today were those top 10% invited to the honors program. We’re still waiting…

I called them earlier because the whole thing was confusing. They said we should expect emails in the coming weeks to our personal emails and that USD emails aren’t made until you commit. They honestly sounded shocked when I explained it said that I was admitted.
That’s pretty crazy-- I guess they weren’t even sure what’s going on. Especially since everything is crazy with the college process this year, maybe it was some sort of mistake or something?
But for those who haven’t heard anything I wouldn’t worry at all. From reading other people’s inputs, it seems that USD releases their decisions in an unconventional way, so I guess all we can do is just keep checking the portal. I’ll also update further if I see anything on mine.

When do we find out about any Awards or Merits?

Their website says, “Scholarship recipients will be notified in their acceptance packet.”
So at least in the mail, possibly in an email, although it doesn’t seem like the school even knows when that will be

Very interesting. Sounds like a mistake they made for those they’re thinking of for the honors program. Thank you again for elaborating.

it’s weird: DS has an admitted notification in the portal, but no evidence of invite to Honors. I guess we will wait for an email confirming whether he is an honors invite as well?
Same thing here
The USD portal is the most confusing website out there. I feel like I’m a chicken hunting and pecking for grains of info. D21 has the admitted tab - was trying to see if merit award info is anywhere, but I get stuck in a link loop. Oh well.

Still no updates over here. “Complete- Ready for review” only
I just refreshed the page and my application tab disappeared, now I don’t have a place to check my status… last time I checked it still said “Complete- ready for review”. Anyone have a clue what this is about? I was sort of enjoying consistently checking my portal with no result…
I think someone said they’ll release in batches every Monday of the week.
that’s really weird. we’re still seeing “complete - ready for review”
Don’t worry. There are still a lot of people who have “complete-under reveiw,” including myself. The only thing we can do is to wait.
Is anyone’s portal down right now? It won’t load.
Mine isn’t working either
