Yeah, they just seem so unorganized though. I already submitted my parents entire tax return for “verification” a while ago so they already have it. And last week they requested my hs transcript but they already had that as well. They’re just so unorganized it’s frustrating.
I wonder what counselors mean when they look at the overall picture and not just the GPA, specifically for Marshall applicants. If they don’t look at extracurriculars so heavy then what else do they consider besides GPA. Also, do trending grades mean they look at the past 30 units or the overall units.
Hi! I was just wondering what the admissions people look for when a student transfers. Is it just academics? Also, what’s the transfer like – is your experience geared towards your major more since transfer students have already done some coursework before.
@bugajskj I’m going to Bruin transfer day! Still doubt I’ll fall in love like I did when I went to Usc in February though.
Is it safe to assume any Marshall applicants who haven’t heard back by now are either getting SGRs or rejections?
I applied for Marshall and still haven’t received a SGR or decision yet also! I’ve been checking my portal every chance I get :-S
I’ve checked last year’s thread of stats and some Marshall applicants received their SGR/decision mid-May to early June so fingers crossed!!
@nayu917 it’s too early to tell! It’s only May 9th and I’ve seen people get SGRs around May 13-15
Don’t lose hope!!
Is it too early to loose hope for an SGR from dornsife?
@hchung0719 I just started reading last years thread… latest decisions for Marshall I’ve seen are around the 20ths. However, no indication whether these admits submitted a SGR or not tho
Bump: Anyone else have the freshman applicant portal? So far the other people I know who have this glitch(?) happen to go to my school.
If I don’t get a notification from MY USPS friday or saturday about a package coming from Los Angeles, i am pretty sure I won’t get in. it is what it is! Always graduate school. I honestly believe I’m too far along in my Business Admin degree for them to accept me even though I have all the stats for it.
Guys if you don’t get in, it really isn’t the end of the world nor does it mean that you aren’t good enough. You can still be just as successful at other good schools and have a great chance of going to a top graduate program where ever (if that is what you want to do). I know some people here are freaking out over this, just don’t let something like this define you or how you feel about yourself. One day you’ll look back and laugh at this because wherever you go, you’ll still accomplish what you wanted to anyways.
@tankle104 I didn’t plan on going to grad school if I graduated from USC. But if I end up at UCI I might have to go to grad school to keep up with the competition. The school name can be pretty helpful in itself
Is it still possible to get an SGR for dornsife applicants? I’m an incoming sophomore so almost 0 chance of straight up acceptance.

Check out pages 4 or 5 there are a couple people who received SGRs late May!
@skepta Many people still have yet to hear back that I can’t imagine that they’re done sending out acceptances and SGRs. Give it until the end of this week and even next week before you worry too much (she says while worrying…)
Also remember that acceptances and SGRs still continue to be released up to the very end, even if there aren’t many.
Put another way, try not to think about it negatively until you actually get the bad news (which I hope none of us will experience…)
ALRIGHT. Who from Dornislife still hasnt heard? Does that mean we’re getting rejections?
It’s only May 9th and there are only a handful of people posting about their acceptances right now! Don’t lose hope guys!!
@Transfer510 I’m a junior Dornsife applicant and haven’t heard anything. Currently attending CC in bay area
@Transfer510 I’m also a junior Dornsife applicant and I haven’t heard back yet…
I’m a junior dornsife Sociology applicant. CC (LA Area) student. I haven’t heard anything since the middle of march… kind of just want to give up and commit to another school already. Just don’t know where.
