Maybe USC Admissions needs to reword their communications?
I had to laugh at the email sent out from Stanford after S submitted his early application. It ..was..very..precise.. It was very specific as to HOW Stanford would communicate to the applicant, WHERE (URLs) communicaions would come from), and that students should NOT call if pieces of the application were shown as missing from the online checker. If pieces are still showing as outstanding by Nov 19, the applicant should send them a SECOND time.
I guess I .. found ... the ... precision ...so ... amusing, given the level of applicant Stanford is striving for. Perhaps they have a better idea than we do how the senior's brains get fried during the application process. What I do know, as a parent, is that one can be driven nuts by the quirks of each school. School A REQUIRES the supplement to be sent BEFORE the Common Application. School B sends an email to the student (since teacher LORs are in), stating that the student SHOULD send the Common App before the supplement if they'd like a chance for an interview. And on and on.
BTW, my S is applying to USC (my H is on faculty there.) Part A was sent ages ago.
Anyone going to the Discover USC event in November (the one on the USC campus)?
