Trick to Check Decision Online

<p>If your status says “the committee has acted on your application”, or maybe even the “forwarded” status, this trick should work for you to see if you were indeed selected as a scholarship candidate:</p>

<p>Log in to the USC event reservation system here: [url=<a href=“http://caravan.esd.usc.edu/resrsvp/]Login[/url”>http://caravan.esd.usc.edu/resrsvp/]Login[/url</a>]</p>

<p>Click on the first link… “Explore USC”.</p>

<p>If you were selected for Trustee candidacy, your message will look like this:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Then it gives brief information about the interview events/dates.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>FWIW, this trick isn’t working for my S who has been “forwarded” to the committee for a a couple days now. As background, he isn’t a national merit scholar. His GPA and SATs are strong (2240 and about 3.8), but not tippy top.</p>

<p>Hmm, then maybe it only works for those with the “acted” status? Your son’s stats look strong, so I wouldn’t be surprised if his status changes soon.</p>

<p>Oh hey it worked for me! Mine has the same message except I’m being considered for a presidential scholarship… aww I was hoping for a trustee scholarship but half is still good to shoot for I guess!</p>

<p>Congratulations!</p>

<p>Mine says</p>

</p>

<p>Am I missing something or did they change it?</p>

<p>I think they changed it…</p>

<p>Yeah, looks like they took down the whole events registration system. I guess it’s true what they say about USC admissions officers browsing CC… haha :D</p>

<p>Oh well in any case I just wanted to say how much I love USC and USC admissions officers :)</p>

<p>Alex-That’s what I see too.</p>

<p>Damn I tried to check and can’t…now I really wanna know!</p>

<p>Yeah I can’t log in either.
hahaha thank you internets! If it weren’t for CC I would probably not even know that I had gotten in.</p>

<p>The login page has now changed to: </p>

<p>Our admission events for the Fall 2009 have concluded.</p>

<p>oh, I guess we wait. S is really, really, really hoping for an acceptance. The school seems like such a good fit.</p>

<p>hehe just want to say hi to the admission officers…</p>

<p>It’s probably partially my fault that I created a thread with such a provocative title… That was bound to catch the eye of an admissions officer.</p>

<p>If an admissions officer is reading this, PLEASE PLEASE change your application program so that if I have been on a page for 45 mins, it doesn’t assume that I’ve been idle even though I’ve been typing into the text boxes. That was a little frustrating there… I eventually got my app in but I hated having to waste time re-typing stuff. A friend of mine was so frustrated by this problem that he actually gave up on applying to USC :P.</p>

<p>I second that. I don’t mean for the long essay… I just mean for the “Quick Takes” or whatever USC called them.</p>
