USC Class of 2022

Congratulations !!!

Guys it is really sporadic through the night. First “did not get scholarship letter” posted at 2:42 am last year, a couple hours after portals started updating. But other people still got good news after that time so it’s not like there is only yes wave then a no scholarship wave. It is random, not sure if by name or location or what, but it can take awhile.

If you have a test or big day tomorrow, try to go to bed (if possible). This can be a long ride.

Ya sure, go to bed, ya right.

FYI-no email, portal looked exactly the same but clicked on admission status anyway. Wow I’m not going to be able to sleep now!!!

did u get an email telling you the portal updated?

@bigchoices2018 Who needs sleep on a night like tonight - congrats!

Portal main page just updated to…

Admitted Student Programs

Admission
Admission Decision
Enrollment Commitment Deposit
Withdraw Your Application
Submit Documents

Financial Aid
Apply for Financial Aid
Financial Aid Summary & Tasks (FAST) page

Apply for Housing

So all, it seems the full change hasn’t happened but some can click on Admission Status and find the answer. When fully loaded the front page will change, but for now that seems to be how to see it - IF yours has been updated. Takes several hours, sorry, it does.

@CADREAMIN NO KIDDING!!! And thanks!!! You’ve been so great to inform and advise on this forum!!! So excited!!!

No portal change, not even in the main page layout.

I stay up to just feel the excitement! I understand my son won’t get any update because he is applying for Thornton through RHP and his live audition will be next weekend. For performance majors, the scholarships are giving solely on the performance of your live audition.

@CADREAMIN i mean, thanks for your encouragement and everything but i’ve never seen anybody in the past couple of years check their portal at 12am, not have a decision, and then get in when they check later…

i might be mistaken of course, but it seems like if you don’t get your update immediately, you didn’t get the scholarship.

Whenever I try to log into my portal now it shows a page for pre applicants whereas it showed the normal admissions page up until this evening. Any explanations?

If I applied for BA Theatre by December 1st, will I hear today? Please help! I’m new to this thread.

I agree, I think everyone that doesnt have a decision yet can just assume they didnt get in. Go to bed

Is there anyone who got an acceptance letter but not a portal update?

based off of the last few comments, it looks like I should say RIP to USC, as I won’t be able to attend without getting at least some type of a merit based scholarship. Congrats to everyone that go in!

Hard to tell because there are posts at 1:44 and 3:43am last year PST of people saying their portal updated to getting in. But we don’t know if they had been check all along, or just checked at that time.

The first no scholarship update was at 2:42am.

@DisneyAlways - same exact situation, RIP to USC for me cause I won’t be able to afford it without some type of a merit based scholarship. No portal update yet.

I am slowly starting to feel let down. No letter (international) and no portal update yet - I understand the slim chances but I am still feeling extremely mediocre. Congrats to everyone that got in, I am sure you deserved it!!
