I think when you look at the list of scholarships - for many the at least $85K, which is very generous, will be it. Even when you look at the next levels offered, they are not huge gains from one to the next - like $500 or $1K per year. We all want cheap - but even the $85K is generous.
Mine received the āat least 40ā email. At least ā85ā would have sealed the deal and weād be so grateful.

Has anyone heard about Top Scholars yet?
Apparently someone instate heard back from top scholars yesterday. Iām not sure what that means for us but hopefully they just havenāt released OOS stuff yet lol

I heard about her but Iām in state and no one else I know in state has gotten it yetā¦
My daughter is on a chat group and said that an in state girl heard back and got Top Scholar, she even posted her email to prove it. So they must be starting to release them.

Wonder if they all went out yesterday?
If its by email why would there be any reason notification time would vary from IS to OOS? to me this seems like they released every accepted notification but none of us on here made it , please give me hope someone

Iām thinking the same thing. I wish they would tell us one way or the other, at this point I just want to know.
Totally. The ambiguity is horrible.
Was it an email to a personal account or on the USC portal?
I havenāt received any notification yet but I was told it would be an email.
give it some time. the man in yesterdayās sesh said news will come late Jan (LOL) to early Feb.

Where did you learn of the session yesterday? We didnāt know about it despite being admitted and in HC (if it was an Honors specific session). Thanks!
HC sent an email on Sunday about Week 2 Series. There is one tomorrow and Thur, each has a different topic. Check your email. My parents got one too.
The session was short and mostly repeatedly what is available online. (Thus, late Jan to early Feb message.) There was a chat to ask questions.
Yeahhhh I understand why they do it from a psychological standpoint cause knowing you didnāt make something in writing makes you not like them as much, esp if you think you had a shot at it, but it really does suck being in the unknown
I emailed admissions one more time to see if they have an update since the girl got her letter yesterday.
Thank u please let us know what they say!

In the session, a HC rep texted that TS email is coming this week. I am surprised someone got it right after that session or even before (I did not see her screenshot or any timestamp.) I would not be surprised if there is IS vs OOS difference. Perhaps I am just being hopeful.
Donāt give up hope yet! Thereās a good chance they havenāt sent out all the notifications yet. If we donāt hear soon, Iāll call admissions later this week to check. I know the waiting is hard, itās making me crazy, but weāll all know soon enough. If you were admitted to the honors college, youāre definitely a top student and you should be proud of that.
Also - I recall reading that in the past IS and OOS notifications come out separately.
