<p>@andork i hope you are right!! i’ve worked so hard at school! my GPA (3.8 UW) is higher than the girl that had sring admit. And I’m taking harder classes than her…
but my SAT is low (1900) 670M/620CR/610W
… sigh… im just bad at standardized testing :(</p>
<p>Same here bro. 3.92 UW GPA, but 1840 SAT score. Standardized testing is definitely not my forte either, but luckily USC overlooked my sub-par SAT score and recognized my other strengths.</p>
<p>haha not a bro magicalmalik
but thanks.
i think im rejected already.
but its not a big deal cuz i probably wouldnt have been able to afford SC</p>
<p>honestly UCLA is my dream school but im out of state and would not have been able to afford and didnt want to take out loans. so i didnt apply UC. (and also all those $$ issues) but oh well looks like its BU for me</p>
<p>anyone else know if theres a chance for fall admits next week?!</p>
<p>Forwarded on 3/23. Applied to CLAS undeclared. Did anyone who was forwarded this week got accepted yet?</p>
<p>Lol, I probably should’ve figured out you were a girl by looking at your username. “Tinkerbell” is a pretty dead give away, haha. Did BU give you solid financial aid?</p>
<p>being reviewed -> forwarded 3/23 -> being reviewed 3/28 (changed overnight). No backdoor links working.</p>
<p>forwarded 3/15… being reviewed (changed overnight) 3/28</p>
<p>I’m really not sure if it’s a good sign or not… I’m expecting a lot of peoples to have changed today for some reason. I haven’t checked the backdoor links but I’m guessing they don’t work.</p>
<p>I have been forwarded for over a month now and never even had the fall grades status and now overnight it changed to reviewed.</p>
<p>input?</p>
<p>Everyone who was forwarded seemed to have changed to reviewed overnight. I was told that it meant rejection from someone who knows someone on the admissions committee. They said all fall and spring acceptances were made by last Friday and rejects were mailed yesterday. It’s just a rumor but seems to make sense. Wishing everyone luck but it’s time to face reality and fight on somewhere else. We will all be just fine!</p>
<p>
Kjoyful, that is definitely an unsupported rumor (you know someone who knows someone??? Geeze) and based on past years I disagree strongly with your conclusions.</p>
<p>In past years the “last batch” has included a mix of acceptances and rejections. If you look at the <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/642272-stats-only-usc-decisons-2009-a-12.html?highlight=stats+2009+decisions[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/642272-stats-only-usc-decisons-2009-a-12.html?highlight=stats+2009+decisions</a> thread you will see that the rejections and last of the acceptances have the same postmark and received date. As there have been no rejections so far, a better conclusion is that the “last batch,” which is very likely to include some acceptances, has not yet been sent.</p>
<p>Perhaps the person who knows someone who knows someone was referring to your application in particular.</p>
<p>Wow alamemom,</p>
<p>I stated it was just a rumor and yes, I’m sure it was just my application. I’m so sorry I offended you. If you would like, I won’t post again. Please accept my apology.</p>
<p>i wish it wasn’t true, but it does make sense.
alright, no worries.</p>
<p>You have not offended me, and feel free to post all you want. However, when someone comes on these threads and posts a sweeping statement with absolutly no support telling these kids that they have all been rejected - especially someone who hasn’t bothered to investigate any of the past trends or threads - you can bet that I am going to let these kids know that is not the case.</p>
<p>Kjoyful - I understand your logic, and it is statistically true that as we get further along in the admissions cycle, the time decay does not work in our favor. With every wave that goes out with admissions only, the statistical chances of acceptance for those left in the pool does decrease. </p>
<p>I think you are just managing expectations, as we all are, since we know the rejections are imminent. Yes, there may be some acceptances coming, and we all hope we are among the lucky ones who get them. I have not given up hope. I’m sure alamemom, who has been wonderfully supportive and positive throughout the hand-wringing happening on this board, understands the reality that anyone who is still waiting is more likely to get bad news than good. She’s a mom and can’t help trying to keep us hopeful!! 
But guys, we all need to be ready, because undoubtedly most of us will end up somewhere else. I for one intend to start focusing on the schools that want me!!</p>
<p>jdhjdh - Thanks. Well stated. Alamemom’s link was helpful. There’s still hope but I’m living in reality here.</p>
<p>I just checked the USC site and have been changed to “in review”. Anyone else?</p>
<p>I was changed last night back to “reviewed”.</p>
<p>changed back to reviewed last night</p>
