@srs2182016 I don’t think you could get acceptance letter in your portal that was a mistake. Where are you talking “up top”? Is it a new letter or a new status
by the way, the admission office is closed today for commencement
It’s supposed to come in an email so I don’t think that’s right. Like every year it’s been through an email
@srs2182016 can u post a screenshot of it
Appeal rejections came around 5pm on May 14 last year. I assume they don’t want to deal with any calls about it, so they send it late so they can fly out the door till Monday, so people settle down over the weekend and go away. Most schools work this way.
"Thank you for requesting a reconsideration of your application for admission to the University of Southern California. A committee of senior evaluators re-reviewed your file, and we considered the information you provided in your appeal statement.
Unfortunately, we did not change our decision. I trust you understand that we gave your case every possible consideration. The competition for admission was especially fierce this year, and we granted very few appeals."
Then stuff about TTP if you are one that was offered that…
@scotlandcalling 5pm PST?
@user99bound I saw a post from usc admissions on twitter that said theyre releasing the reuslts on may 14
@whostolemycookie that doesn’t make any sense. The admissions lady told me today like why would she lie?
That tweet must have been a mistake because it says “Thursday, May 14th, 2015.” on the back of the rejection letter it says we will be notified by email at 5 pm PST today, that’s the only official announcement.
Like scotlandcalling said, check your email at end of day today, around 5pm pst.
I was accepted, and was told officially by an admissions officer after reaching out to the admissions email. There is an acceptance later dated to todays date on my portal, even though it still says March 23, 2016 under sent once you click on check your application status. They told me over email that packages were sent out today and will arrive shortly.
@srs2182016 I just checked like you said and it hasn’t changed yet. When did you notice the change?
srs2182016 posted at 4am and it appears legit since he/she gave a lot of background info. My guess (and only a guess) is acceptances are out. If you haven’t heard by now look for email around 5pm. That is how it worked last year.
Also, in past years, all appeal decisions, both rejections and acceptances, came out at around 5 PM PST. They may be sending them out in waves.
Another thing: Last year, someone who appealed successfully said they got their acceptance at around 8 AM. Later in the day, more people got acceptances, so I think they roll out in waves rather than everyone getting decisions at once.
@srs2182016 how did you get through to their office? i keep getting that the office is closed?
We’re in CA and daughter just received rejection email. Good luck everyone!
I can’t believe it!!! I GOT IN!!!
Fall admission as an undecided major!!! I’m super excited… Trojans!!!
Congrats @srs2182016 and @mydream2!
