What if you have the prelim status but you didn't apply with the scholarship?

<p>I applied on January 1st, sans scholarship consideration, and I have had the Preliminary Review status this whole time, but i sent in my midyear reports a while ago and it's still on prelim review, if anything my midyear report would have aided my case because i had a 5.0 weighted gpa this semester... !?</p>

<p>yeah, same. i’ve had that status for a while now. but if i remember correctly usc doesn’t require midyear reports unless they specifically request them?</p>

<p>yeah i know i heard that also, but a friend of mine said that he turned in their midyear reports and that his status was changed so i thought i might have the same luck but i think he might have turned in his app by the scholarship deadline so i’m not positiveeee</p>
