I definitely wouldn’t trust it! If anything, if it works it’s a good sign but I wouldn’t see it as a no if not. The way a lot of these schools have been doing admits is in waves so even if it doesn’t work now it doesn’t mean it won’t tomorrow! I just got accepted to u del last a Friday in like the third or fourth wave, way after everyone else I knew was accepted
I posted it more as a lark than anything. Keep the faith!
I live in columbia, 5 minutes from USC, still havnt heard back , only a few of my friends have
My daughter was deferred at UGA…has been accepted everywhere else she applied. Waiting patiently for UofSC
@MD2024 we all have too much time on our hands LOL. Mine came up same but I bet it is all who applied I wonder if notice will come today or just throughout the week. Someone should call admission office
@jgwolf I thought the same about it being all those who applied but sounds like it’s not working for everyone. Yes I have way too much time on my hands and I am spending it stalking last year’s posts obv!
OK…my daughter’s portal page looks different. No test scores listed anymore…hope that means something is happening.
Does the “Students must first claim their account …” mean it’s likely that an admission is coming?
My portal looks exactly the same with test scores.
@SlimJim001 who knows. We can only speculate at this point. Let’s hope so. We will all know soon enough and I’ll post either way for people stalking next year
My portal looks the same too. At the top “Home … Test Scores” tabs. Below that the “Application Checklist.”
It may change based on when the announcements are released.
What time of day do you think we will start hearing?
im guessing after school hours around 4-5
My sons portal page looks the same too
A big part of me is skeptical that it may not be today either. I think that the transition of an I.T. BETA for online notifications may be one of the reasons that the process is different this year.
Does anyone think it could be possible that the first batch of online notifications that were released in November possibly had some issues they have been working to get it patched for a larger swath of releases this week? If so, they will lean on every day in order to get it working properly. What they “don’t” want is incorrect results released either way and taking more diligence to verify in their test environment.
I don’t wish this to be the case, but conceivably, they could release everyone electronically on Friday and still be within the time frame stated since it is now electronic notifications. They have quite a bit of runway by posting 9-13 as release date.Just something to think about…
That “hack” worked for me. I am out of state. Most schools have given decisions late afternoon so 4-5. South Carolina may do it differently though. I don’t know why they won’t just do one massive release like UGA.
@Redi2cruise2024 I agree completely. I don’t expect to hear today as much as I’d like to. There were a lot of upset students with the way notifications went out last year Via snail mail and this year is totally different.
On another note, one thing that bothers me is that very few people come back to post when they get deferred or don’t get in. I get it in a way, because what is the point for them, but still I plan to post either way because it’s helpful for people next year waiting. I feel like my decision could totally go either way as OOS with a 92 GPA and 1340 SAT and hoping for the Business school. So if I get deferred it’s helpful to others hoping to understand their chances.
How would this work when I’ve never given them my social security? Maybe only works with FASFA applicants that have given ssn
FYI on Facebook someone asked the question about decisions coming out today and there was a reply that said “nothing has gone out yet but will be coming later in the week” ?
@bamn76 I did not fill out the FAFSA so they had to have asked for my SSN somewhere in the application process. I just rechecked the hack using my correct birthdate and last name info with my SSN off by one digit and the hack didn’t work. So somehow they have it, and it’s not from FAFSA.
I didn’t get anything in the mail today so I am not expecting any portal posts either. Who knows.
