<p>Scholarship interview invitations go out in late January/early February. Trustee/Mork/Stamps interviews are at the end of February and Presidential interviews are at the beginning of March.</p>
<p>As NC Mom mentions, there is always some up-and-down movement, so a Mork/Stamps/Trustee candidate may be awarded a Presidential, Dean’s or smaller scholarship and on occasion Presidential candidates are “bumped up” to Mork/Stamps/Trustee.</p>
<p>Interviews are held at a two-day Explore USC event (basically a program designed to make you love USC and choose USC). In the past, USC has offered a stipend for distant candidates of up to $200 towards airfare for the candidate only. Candidates stay overnight with a USC student and are given vouchers for meals.</p>
