<p>I’m not going to go into the whole USC versus UCLA rival thing with you Iamrecognized, on collegeconfidential. It’s unnecessary.</p>
<p>Save your school pride for the football games and rival week. Oh wait, you’re not even accepted yet. Ha, that’s ironic. You already have school pride for a school you haven’t attended.</p>
<p>Dang, no decisions for you guys as of yet. I wish you guys good luck for tomorrow.</p>
<p>iamrecognized-UCLA is not a downgrade from USC; even though I am choosing USC over UCLA. They are both exceptional schools. No shame in going to UCLA.</p>
<p>waitingonSC,</p>
<p>Are you accepted to USC already?</p>
<p>I did get accepted for the spring semester. USC is my dream school, so I don’t mind waiting a few extra months. </p>
<p>But people sound ignorant when they say UCLA is inferior to USC.</p>
<p>Congrats!</p>
<p>Oh I know, the comparisons between UCLA and USC or UCLA with Cal is a bit silly. Seriously, all schools are great. Bravo for anyone getting into any of them.</p>
<p>Thanks! I couldn’t agree more!</p>
<p>Good luck! I was also an SGR applicant, like yourself. There is hope for us SGR’s. :)</p>
<p>Thanks! When did you submit your grades and hear back from them?</p>
<p>I cannot recall the exact dates. But, I will give you an approximate time line.</p>
<p>5/29: Personally submitted grades on campus. (status update)
5/30: Committee is reviewing update.
6/1: Committee has acted on. Able to log onto deposit website.
6/3: Received package. </p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
<p>Thanks a lot! Hopefully, I’ll know by tomorrow or at least, by the end of the week.</p>
<p>I’ll cross my fingers for you! Is USC your number 1?</p>
<p>I like their philosophy program better than UCLA’s. Plus, with public school budget cuts… there are less classes. With USC or other private schools, that shouldn’t be too much of a problem.</p>
<p>Oh, and thank you again.</p>
<p>Thanks for the shot of hope there ‘waitingonSC’…</p>
<p>I am still waiting, still holding out hope. No mail today. Maybe tomorrow.
I don’t know why all the cloak of secrecy after June 1st is necessary. I don’t have an SGR. A decision has been made. Why not just tell a dude what it is? It’s not like they can’t see it on the screen when you call.</p>
<p>I am frustrated.
Over nothing really.</p>
<p>LOL.</p>
<p>Dang greg, that really sucks that you are still waiting. You have a good resume too. SC has been the most stressful school, by far!</p>
<p>It has easily been the most stressful. Or maybe I am just ungrateful and God’s trying to show me something about that. Haven’t decided which.</p>
<p>My days go like this:
Everyday I wait for a package or even a letter. And everyday someone from FSU calls. </p>
<p>See, I am ducking the people at FSU where I have a full scholarship into their creative writing program. I haven’t responded to housing requests, orientation reservations or scheduling of advisement appointments. Like I fell off the face of the Earth.</p>
<p>I am thinking I am going to tell them I was ‘out of the country’ at least that’s my initial story and I am sticking to it. </p>
<p>But the truth of the matter is: I haven’t answered them yet because I am ‘waitingonSC’.</p>
<p>So I have to wait till tomorrow. At some point I am going have to stop lying or stop kidding myself. But not today. A answer from USC would help. Any answer.</p>
<p>Till then I hold out hope. I think I can go at least another day.</p>
<p>To all you upset at me for the USC > ucla thing, please do keep in mind a few things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Both my parents attended USC</li>
<li>Both my parents were in the USC Band</li>
<li>I’ve been to nearly every home USC football game since about 1994 or so</li>
<li>I’ve been in the USC Band for the last year</li>
</ul>
<p>USC > UCLA. No need to explain Iamrecognized. USC ALL DAY!</p>
<p>Greg, are you serious? STILL no answer yet? What do they tell you when you call?</p>
<p>have we heard from any SGRs who have been rejected? i haven’t yet…i hope that’s a good sign!</p>
<p>Greg’s Official USC Excuse Shirt:</p>
<p>“Call on the 11th.”
“No. I can’t tell you.”
“Really? You didn’t receive an answer from us yet.”
“What’s your address?”
“I see a decision has been made.”
“It was sent.”</p>
<p>@TRISH — Any one of those…
LOL.</p>
