Did anyone get accepted as a "January Scholar"?

I know that USC has a January program. Middlebury, too.

I have a lot of friends who are in the Wash U January program this year, and it’s a great program. They all had a great first semester doing their own thing, and now they’re well-adjusted and pretty much on-par with the rest of us with credits and requirements. In my opinion, Wash U does a very good job integrating J-progs with the rest of the freshman class and with each other. If you really like Wash U and were offered a spot as a J-prog, it’s a really good opportunity so don’t rule it out just because you wouldn’t start until January. It’s not a bad deal at all.
