ok so I'm a spring admit and I replied that I am going to attend USC, now I was wondering if the deadline for the spring housing was on May 1 and if you didn't apply by then, are you doomed for housing? does anyone know the answer to this? The usc housing website is still working but I was wondering whats the chances of being able to get housing even though it's kind of late Thanks guys!

Spring admits can't apply until jUly 1st....I already tried hha

HMR, which dorms are you trying to live in?

HMRacts1

Well...I put a lot of the common top choices....Binkrant, New/North, Pardee...but they made it sound like the spring admits could apply at any time and they would jsut set aside your application for spring if you turned it in early. Apparently I read it wrong because they emailed me saying i couldn't apply till July.... : (

But they said I have a great shot of moving up to fall sooo we'll see

Ya, they definitely did make it sound like you could apply and that they would just set it aside. I wonder what happens with housing if you get moved up to the fall? Good luck though. It does seem like you have a good shot, especially based on how persistant you've been.

Taxi.....why can't you go in fall if you were to be moved up??

USC is already way too expensive for my family. They said I could go under the condition that I continue to apply for scholarships throughout college, save most of my money from working in the summer to pay for college, and that I get a solid job during the fall and save that money as well. I recently found out that I got an alumni scholarship, and if I end up finding a little bit more money in the next two years, I will end up with a reasonable (yet still large) amount of student loans so that I'm not screwed when I graduate.

hey you guys is usc spring admit really worth it? today I found out the hard way for housing, I sent in the app with $30 and it got canceled bc I'm in spring.. it makes it sound like spring= secondstring... r u guys totally ok with going to cc, starting skewl late, and having to catch up and register for next years classes asap? Im really starting to have doubts about the college

It all depends on what's going to work for you.....USC has one of the best theatre schools for acting and that's what I want to do.....soo that's why i'm going. I've been in love with USC since I first visited the school....I wouldn't be happy with any other school.

I have no doubts at all. I won't be going to CC because of my AP credits, and I'm not worried about applying for classes. If you have any questions about registering for classes or anything I would contact the specific school you got into with questions. I contacted Marshall about my AP credits and I received a very helpful response. I'm a pretty outgoing person so I'm not as worried about the social aspect. Plus, you can always rush and join different organizations if you're trying to get really social. I have heard from people who know or are related to spring admits and they told me that you really don't feel excluded at all. However, if you truly think you're not going to enjoy yourself you might want to think about your decision.

i have about 4 ap credits so far but only one counts as a GE, the other three are elective points... do u guys knoe if i would still be behind if i entered without cc?

uscgirl192

is it hard to get into the social dorms for spring admits?
and does anyone know the chances of getting moved up to fall for the marshall school?

HMRacts1

The only thing i know is that the school as a whole did not meet their tield sooo they will be moving people up...but thats about it
