USC 2009 transfer thread

<p>So even after a very generous financial aid appeal, I still will not be able to afford USC. My family fell into a rough economic situation this spring, and my current university has given me enough additional aid to support me.</p>

<p>I am withdrawing from USC and hopefully changing my major at my current institution to “fix” things academically. I’ll possibly apply to USC for grad school, though the future on that is very uncertain.</p>

<p>I’m really upset, but it’s okay. I got in, I am enrolled (for only a few more days…) and I feel like a Trojan! C:</p>

<p>Congrats to everyone who got in. It’s amazing!</p>

<p>Marco, I’m already looking into loans and scholarships because I know that I cannot afford all of the tuition by myself without any financial aid. But like you, I already committed and am planning to go.:smiley: You still didn’t hear from FA?</p>

<p>and RadRedhead, that really sucks. But you’re still a Trojan at heart and that’s all that matters!! :smiley: Good luck on your future endeavors and definitely come to USC for grad school!! :)</p>

<p>yeah, i prob should start doing research for scholarships and loans too. not yet…my thing updated today, but it stills says “being reviewed.” i checked the mail today and there was a letter from the USC FA department and i was like !!!FA info!!! but it ended up being another letter saying that they need more info. have you heard yet?</p>

<p>sorry to hear that rad. good luck with everything! :D</p>

<p>thx for the responses guys
i still cant log in to the deposit page haha</p>

<p>you’ll be able to log in soon kmzizzle.</p>

<p>and Marco, no I haven’t heard anything :frowning:
BUT mine was under review yesterday!</p>

<p>So I called admissions to see why I haven’t received my packet even though my application was acted on two weeks ago and they told me they sent my packet to the wrong address. All the hope I had for getting on-campus housing is pretty much gone…■■■. </p>

<p>Anyway, does anyone know how long financial aid packets usually take to arrive after acceptance?</p>

<p>It took two weeks for my financial aid to post on OASIS, and 2-3 days later the hard copy arrived at my house. That was during the peak of decisions, though. It may take less time now.</p>

<p>Ok thanks airborne. It should be posted soon then…sweet!</p>

<p>did any of you late acceptances talk to USC about registering since we got in after the last orientation?</p>

<p>what are all the spring transfer planning on doing about housing?</p>

<p>does usc even have housing for spring transfers?</p>

<p>i applied for housing alreadt. if you haven’t, you should sign up ASAP because it’s on a first come first serve basis. they don’t guarantee it, but i read on some other thread that spring admits usually get campus housing, but i’m not sure if that info is legit or not…i hope it is, lol. if i don’t get it then idk what to do. i guess they give you options at orientation, but orientation is like 5 days before the semester starts. they don’t let us know about our room assignments until november either…which i find it lame because it doesn’t leave us very much time to make a backup plan if we get stuck without a room.</p>

<p>Status as of
07/22/2009
Application Status</p>

<ul>
<li>Financial Aid Eligibility - Completed</li>
</ul>

<p>:O</p>

<p>hey guys! good morninggggg :)</p>

<p>Did you guys get the letter to sign up for orientation? I just signed up for 1/5th :)</p>

<p>my FA report just came in like 10 minutes ago! it’s very very very reasonable!</p>

<p>My FA was just updated today! Hopefully it will be done by tomorrow like marco’s.</p>

<p>yeah i hope you guys hear soon. sounds like most of your FA’s are getting updated, so hopefully it comes by the end of the week! :D</p>

<p>i kinda want to live alone in the spring, are there an on campus housing options or usc managed options for living alone?</p>

<p>i’m pretty sure they have some rooms for individuals, but idk anything about them. they are probably a lot more expensive. i’m nervous to hear back from housing! what was everyone’s first choices? i think my first choice was century 1b2p</p>

<p>I have been searching around for some information on usc acception/rejection letter and now i must say…</p>

<p>i just finished reading a years worth of post’s. these last few pages of posts were very scary because i still haven’t received anything…</p>

<p>I did get the SGR… but i havent heard anything since then. i called USC they said they sent (im not sure if the girl said letter) something barely today. Doesn’t sound good to me because from what I’ve been reading everyone here is almost ready to go.</p>

<p>I cant log into anything. i cant even check my status because i forgot my password. (Must of been a good one. lol)</p>

<p>Congratulations to everyone who got accepted …im still fighting? :(</p>
