If anyone wants to call too and see if they say the same again please do!

422

@emarie19 Just tried to call and had to wait like 5 minutes since they ā€œwere receiving a high volume of calls and would experience a longer wait timeā€ before I just hung up, Iā€™ll leave it to someone else, lol

423

They say what you want to hear to get you off the phone and they can get on to addressing real issues. Imagine how many calls they get.

424

The letters were definitely mailed yesterday. The portals will update sometime on Saturday morning. Around 975 students were selected as finalists for Trustee or Presidential scholarships.

425

omg! where are you getting this from? @s0meUSCkid95

426

@s0meUSCkid95 did admissions tell you this too?

427

@s0meUSCkid95 how did you find this out?

428

I work on campus and have access to this information. I posted a similar update last year.

429

Just heard of a box in OC - yes its true. Up for Presidential scholarship

430

Does news of no scholarship come by letter also?

431

I know the family. I have been a long time poster. Their younger child got in a few years ago with a deans I think. So this is real. They are out!

432

Yes I know @s0meUSCkid95 from 2 years ago. Thank you.

433

There will be a letter emailed on Saturday telling students if they didnā€™t get picked as a Trustee or Presidential finalist. I think it will only go to people who met the 1 December deadline. It might be posted on the portal too.

434

What about the Deansā€¦they used to admit many around this time and some just had deans - no interview for the Trustee/Presidential

435

Do the people who get Deanā€™s (1/4 tuition) get notified in January? I think I remember reading they get the acceptance in the mail with no mention of scholarship, but then the scholarship is shown when the portal updates. Does that sound correct?

436

@s0meUSCkid95 Do you think the boxes went out for the deans too??? Or do you think it is just for the Presidential/Trustee

437

yes @collegemom111111 this is what happened in the past. I am wondering if they are doing it differently this time. No box for us.

438

I think someone from SouCal will probably get the package today, others shoud be expected to receive it on Friday or Saturday???

439

@s0meUSCkid95 wondered where u were this year! Welcome back around. Thought it would be today but posts are super late in day. Maybe they didnā€™t get out till late yesterday after regular pickupā€¦

440

I trust @s0meUSCkid95 after I check his post of last year.
