Congrats to those who are beginning to hear back! And for those who aren’t, don’t worry! It’s not forever that we’re waiting (even though it feels like it!)
I thought I’d just give a quick update from my end– I haven’t had any updates on the portal (financial aid, etc.) but I did receive an email today about a USD scholarship to apply for (“University Ministry Scholarship” for those who are curious). I guess this means some of us might be able to expect them to be reaching out about various school-sponsored scholarships to apply for. The date for this specific one was 4/1, so the deadline for some of these could be coming up quick.
Hoping for some more good news in this thread from everyone else!!

Financial Aid packages should be out for those (or at least some) who have been admitted.
Is it just me or was FAFSA/ scholarships not applied to your guys’ financial aid offer too?
Mine did include it, but I think they mentioned that in their email:
"Important: This Financial Aid Offer remains estimated until any documents requested through your Financial Aid Requirements or sent to you by email have been received and reviewed.
You will need to provide additional information to confirm data reported by you and/or your parents on your 2021-2022 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Your Financial Aid Offer will be finalized after this information is received and reviewed.
If you log in to the MySanDiego portal and ONLY see a Pell Grant on your Financial Aid Offer, this is NOT your confirmed offer. The requested documents must be received and reviewed before your offer will be finalized."
Does anyone see their merit award in the portal? Or is it only showing financial aid at this time?
Are all acceptances out? My portal still says “complete- ready for review.” Is this a bad sign?

I do not see my merit award in the portal. i only got it in the email with my acceptance. On the portal I only see my estimated cost of attendance of $72,000 which doesn’t include the merit award I recieved

I also only don’t see the merit $ or any financial aid - just the Student Electronic Agreement form - but what do you put for the USD email?
It didn’t let us type in the USD email tab space, so just skipped it.

I wouldn’t worry about it as so many people have yet to hear; it appears the USD likes to randomly release decisions throughout the month, so it could be whenever and without any heads up. The thread is a little jagged at this point since some people are discussing if they’ve been admitted and some are starting to see financial and merit aid. BUT, a little patience and a deep breath seems to be the key here

Mine too…
We might hear something Monday, that’s when the usually release a big chunk of decisions
The past Monday 3/8 didn’t seem to have much decisions. I see 1 reported here on 3/8 and another 1 on 3/9. That is it.
Has anyone heard anything from USD yet? I am still waiting and I am in state.
i applied for psych, in state, and im still waiting. they usually come out on mondays but most colleges release in the afternoon so I wouldn’t start the adamant refreshing until later on in the day
