<p>Both my daughters were spring admits. Oldest graduated last year. This is not a holdover from the times when SC was less competitive, but rather a way to fill spots vacated by kids who graduate early or late and to a lesser extent to fill in for kids who are in Europe. </p>
<p>Yes you can appeal and be bumped to fall. My youngest didn’t do the work for the appeal so she started in spring. And sometimes when an applicant is rejected and appeals they are given spring admission as an option.</p>
