Got the no scholarship email with a 2340 SAT and 3.92 GPA, applied from AZ to Marshall
@maythefore Congrats!!! Sincerely!
Anyone from Maryland or Virgina or DC here, did you get your mail? The blizzard came at the wrong time. I’m dying here. I didn’t receive any rejection email. Did everyone who was not accepted get his/her rejection letter. No portal update too. Things looking grim. Thanks for your answers.
F**ktheblizzard
Portal updated and letter with no scholarship was there
@maytheforce oh sht, sorry I misread ur message… Felling the same as u… The offer will come! 
Still best wishes to us.
QUESTION: are the spots for the Explore USC usually filled up immediately? I can’t confirm a date yet so I don’t know if I should put down something first, or wait till I have a set plan.
@Joniman same here. From the DC area and no email, mail, or portal change.
I’m assuming that the no scholarship email applies to dean’s as well? Just got my scholarship rejection 
Maybe the portal update is based on major? Can you post your major/ school and whether or not the portal updated for you. Doesn’t seem based on location
Can someone give me a confirmation, to make me feel better? Doesn’t the scholarship list say that these are for international students only? So if I’m a California student who was rejected, I shouldn’t be disappointed? https://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/docs/Scholarships.pdf Is the scholarship list.
@Frankie22 lol thanks! fingers crossed for both of us for April!
@Coloradogymnast4422 Major: Film & TV Production, School: SCA, Portal: Updated
I was wondering a similar thing to pterosprite. In the email, it only mentions the Mork Family, Stamps Leadership, Trustee, and Presidential scholarships, so it doesn’t explicitly tell you you didn’t qualify for Dean’s. But then it says “Your application is still being considered for admission. We will mail these notifications to you so you have a decision by April 1.” which I would guess means you aren’t gonna get any early notification, even for Dean’s.
So has anyone gotten Dean’s and also got the email?
My mail still hasn’t been delivered since Friday thanks to the blizzard so I’m just holding onto any scrap of hope haha
@tennessee1 I’m a Trustee finalist, and I am also a National Merit Semifinalist (likely a finalist). My portal was updated today!
@alphabetatrig the big scholarships are available to all freshman applicants, no? Where does it say international?
Hi - I’m an international student too from UK- we do not get any form of financial aid in terms need based aid so therefore it doesn’t matter if you submit financial aid documents as they’re pointless really! Merit scholarships do not take into account financial standing
Have they sent you anything through the post? just general stuff…?
@XCjunior2016 oh whoops my mistake. I read “extremely competitive international pool” as being only international students. (It’s in the “additional selection criteria” portion of the scholarship list).
@versaysea no about 4 hours north in Leeds! Why?
I’m a finalist for USC’s Trustee (full) scholarship and my portal was updated today as well. Haven’t checked the mail yet.
@aspenz Several years ago, we waited several days (maybe more than a week) to register for the interview and got the date we wanted. Not sure how easy it is now- and maybe we wanted the less preferred one. But we didn’t hear of anyone having issues. If it fills and the other date doesn’t work, call your admissions counselor and tell them. They do want you to attend USC and are wooing you now.
Can someone please verify that the Dean’s was included in that scholarship rejection email.
