*******USC Class of 2020 Results/Discussion Thread**********

Sorry if this is already in a post somewhere but is the NMF presidential at USC for 4 years? Or just the first year. It was not clear in the USC scholarship pdf that details all available scholarships. Thanks.

Congrats to everyone! !!
No scholarship email came today.
Is there anyone applied for SCA got the scholarships?
Will the case for SCA applicants a bit different?
:frowning:

Do people who got Deans still get the email?
Since the email was just about Mork, Stamps, Presidential, and Trustee?

Some people at my school already got an email stating they were not given a merit scholarship

@Frankie22 I’m in the same boat. No email yet. I hear one person got invited for Trustee’s to writing at SCA. I think no news = good news so far!

I haven’t checked my email yet, but I did get a portal update with the no scholarship update.

Rejection! Cried it out. Yay.

Nothing from boston

@tennessee1 no worries fella, just obvs not in the best mood rn as you can imagine lool

Friend in Michigan applied to SCA and got the no scholarship email… I haven’t gotten any email, no portal updates, and the mail hasn’t been running because of the snow.

Portal only partially updated. If I click “Admission Decision” the language is the same, “You can track the status of your application here.” and “We have received your Common Application and USC Supplement, and it appears that we require no additional information at this time” etc etc

But on main page there are 3 new links:
Enrollment Commitment Deposit (under Admission section)
Explore USC (under On-Campus Admitted Student Programs)
Apply for Housing (at the bottom)

Also at the top right by the USC logo there’s a small white box underneath that says

Fo deans people see a portal update?

@dansmoaustin Yes, the NMF Presidential scholarship is for 4 years. The NMF Presidential is treated exactly the same as a regular Presidential. You get all the same benefits. The difference is the extra scholarship NMF get- either the one time 2.5 k or 1k a year for 4 years (if everything remains the same as it was in the past)

Someone tipped me off that the decision letter is also on the portal. I went back in and saw that on the Admission Decision page, in the box that says “Current Messages,” there’s a pdf of the same decision letter that came in the mail. However, the language at the top of that page is still the same.

Did any NMSFs get invited for Trustee or Presidential? I wonder if they try to save those for people who will not be qualifying for the NMF Presidential? Anyone know?

@Frankie22 I got the no scholarship email today and I applied to SCA film & tv production.
Currently drowning my woes in ice cream

Is it possible that they are releasing the portal updates and emails in batches based on school/location?

@tennessee1 yes they did.

From Singapore here - got the no scholarship email. All the best to those accepted so far, GGWP everyone - and for those in the same boat as me, all the best with getting accepted.

from Rhode Island (east coast): got the email this morning & it was what I expected- no scholarships. Good luck to everyone & congrats if you did!
