I believe the portal will update by Wednesday, I don’t know what time (since that will be the next question ) The letters saying you didn’t get a scholarship but are still being considered from admission are likely being sent out today or tomorrow with arrival by Friday. This is how it worked last year. They started getting these letters out faster cause people were losing their mind thinking their mail could be lost or late etc., when in fact they weren’t getting a package. The anticipation is brutal. But a lot that won’t get a scholarship will get admitted, you just have to wait longer. ugh, the angst, I know.
Update: Last year it seems portal update was Thursday, I thought it was earlier, hope it is earlier this year.
Had anyone in southern California(Orange County) received a rejection on the scholarships? Or acceptance? I saw one acceptance from southern Cal. I haven’t received anything and I in southern Orange county.
FWIW - I do not know why they don’t sent out packages and “no scholarship letters” on same day. I say this every year . Closure would be good, it isn’t healthy for so many to hear others got in and with packages, makes for a long couple days imaging the mail is late or lost. I know it is real life, but it is a brutal process.
@CADREAMIN thank you for your helpful posts! I’ll hold out hope for one more day in Minn. we’re grateful that my D is NMF so if she gets in at all she’ll get the 1/2 off. Knowing sooner would have been helpful for planning (and possibly making a visit.)
Best wishes to all, but especially to those who truly consider USC their dream school!
Nothing in Las Vegas. Does that mean we didn’t get the scholarship if we haven’t gotten our mail yet (for states closer to USC)? Like they send out scholarships first then the regular letter in waves?
Ya I thought Tuesday was portal update last year, but couldn’t find a post on that from last year, except one dated Thursday. Sounds like you did @Abwee67. Good, hope it is!
Just got my acceptance!!! ecstatic!! no mention of scholarship though! does that mean automatically a dean’s scholarship or will i receive a letter in the next few days?
I live in Texas and I just got my acceptance package today (I got into Marshall)! Finalist for Presidential Scholarship and super ecstatic considering my test scores aren’t quite where they typically are for such a merit (30 ACT). Fight on!
My son is dying here. Nothing in the mail today (AZ) 2300 SAT, 4.876 weighted/4.0 unweighted, strong leadership, top 5% of class, NM semi-finalist, SAT Subjects: Bio-750, Math2-750 Physics-760, applied Dornslife - Physics. Does he have a chance for admission and scholarship? (If he gets NMF he will get 1/2 tuition, but hoping for Presidential or Trustee too.)
