2016 - 2017 USC Transfer

i just called the admission office just now and ask for a status update on my application. The lady on the phone said a decision has been made and i’ll probably receive something by the end of this week. She also mention that I’ve called yesterday also lol I did not know that the system keeps track of our numbers. I do not know if she’s lying about " a decision has been made" to prevent me from calling back again tomorrow, but I hope this is a good sign…hopefully…

Anyone still waiting have a similar situation as I do?

@zettasyntax do you think she’s making an excuse for me not to call again? I can’t wait any longer.

@ezgnim yes marshall applicant ! I actually prefer spring admit. I’ve completed most of my prereq for marshall such as accounting and math except for my GEs. I plan to take all my GEs at my ccc than at USC so I could save money.

good luck man, marshall applicant?

also I hope u get fall, spring admission is an awkward situation lol

What are you going for the fall @ezgnim and I agree it is awkward lol

haven’t decided yet but probably take classes or intern or little bit of both? wbu, have you thought about it yet?

HOLY SH*T MY APPEAL WAS SUCCESSFUL AND I’VE BEEN ADMITTED TO THE FALL SEMESTER!!!

@pomeranian4rich How the heck did they know you called before? Was it somehow the same person? If they say a decision has been made, I’d believe them. The only time I think they lie is when they say “you’ll hear back in 2 weeks” or something like that. Whenever I called, they would all have different stories about the timeframe. If they’ve actually stated a decision was made, I’d take their word. It also seems like some people that got the ability to benefit thing called just to verify a decision was made (even though they already knew it), so I’d believe her :slight_smile:

@ohwiseone no way! did u appeal from spring to fall or?

@ohwiseone congrats btw :))

@ezgnim thanks! And no I got flat out rejected and I appealed for admission! I didn’t think it would be successful.

@ohwiseone Awesome. You’re only the second appeal success story I’ve heard in my 3 years on this forum :slight_smile:

Make sure you post in the stats thread too, hehe. We need to document this for future appeal peeps :stuck_out_tongue:

@pomeranian4rich I keep checking here to see if you’ve found anything out, lol! I take it you don’t have OASIS and can’t check your STARS report?

Meanwhile, we are in LA and still no packet. Thank goodness it was on the portal this late in the game.

@ohwiseone that’s dope! congrats again! marshall school?

@ohwiseone OH SH** CONGRATS!!!

For those of you that have been accepted…how long did it take for you to be able to activate your USC Net ID?

They do track calls, besides your phone number, system has you enter USC id or they ask for it when speaking with you - they keep an automated call/incident log.

@LadyVeee after you pay your enroll deposit fee it will give you the 10 digit USC net information

Can anyone link me to the page that tells you what foreign schools you can study at in the fall pls!!!
