USC Merit Scholarships

<p>Does anyone know when the Merit Scholarships (Presidential and Trustee) notifications will go out? I have heard that they will mail them and post them on the USConnect account, but they are not sure when. Anybody have any information/updates?</p>

<p>My daughter heard they were going to go out yesterday but haven’t seen anything yet either. Has anyone else heard anything?</p>

<p>Based on the past several years, my wild guess would be that they went in the mail today, Friday March 21st.</p>

<p>On another thread there were two current candidates who posted that they understood from discussion at Explore that the scholarship notices would be mailed the same day as the admission decisions: March 26th. I still think we will see posts in the next few days.</p>

<p>Hoping that all of you get the greatest of news!</p>

<p>Someone on the Facebook page that went to the last Explore was told that they would be in the mail in about one and a half weeks, meaning today :)</p>

<p>Heads up-- scholarship notifications are now posted on USConnect as of this morning. Congrats to my fellow Presidential Scholars, as well as Trustee Scholars.</p>

<p>It’s posted! DS received the Presidential Scholarship. </p>

<p>CONGRATULATIONS!</p>

<p>My S got a Presidential Scholarship to Viterbi.</p>

<p>My DD got the Trustee Scholarship to Dornsife. We are thrilled, but now she has to make a difficult decision among great options: Stanford (REA, with no money), Vanderbilt with a full tuition scholarship, USC with a Trustee and maybe more to come next week.</p>

<p>@mramadan your previous posts refer to a son entering college this fall</p>

<p>@stloumom I have a son and a daughter. My son is currently a freshman at Stanford. He also got a USC Trustee scholarship, but he preferred to go to Stanford.</p>

@mramadan I know this thread is a year old but my D is anxiously awaiting the small white envelope with her scholarship decision. She was not told the decisions would be posted online but rather she would hear by April 1. Did you ultimately receive an envelope and, if so, how long after the posting?
