<p>i hope they send me a package before a status update =/</p>
<p>Follow-up for those who asked…Accepted daughter had mediocre SATs. 500’s English, 600’s Math, 600’s Writing. AP Calc was a 5. Took AP Physics but did not test because it seemed pointless; she would take engineering physics at college anyway. First semester at state college was 4.0, with Calc 2 and physics. As for extras- none in College. In high school- captain of basketball and tennis, NHS, 3.6 GPA. Hope that helps</p>
<p>@coastalmainer- Those are pretty solid stats overall. Congrats to your daughter on the acceptance.</p>
<p>we now know of at least 3 acceptances. fun. Everyone be sure to post any status updates/sgrs/whatever as we are ALL in this together.</p>
<p>so…i just received an email telling me to send in additional financial aid documents…is that a good sign or just regular process…</p>
<p>I’ve been browsing through this thread, and I was wondering what does SGR mean?</p>
<p>and 1 more question…is usc need blind or not?</p>
<p>@sadfish - Spring grade request aka your final semester grades.</p>
<p>@evangelionn01 - Yes they are.</p>
<p>@evangelionn01 The financial aid documents are part of the process. You probably did not turn in the forms that they required on time and they need them ASAP.</p>
<p>what is “-STUDENTS CORRESPONDENCE” under the Documents recieved list?</p>
<p>@SouthOCtrojan - student correspondence most likely refers to any correspondence from the student such as letters/memos/emails you’ve written.</p>
<p>@ SouthOCtrojan-- Have you contacted your admissions rep at all? That shows up under my documents as well, but I emailed my rep to update some information.</p>
<p>ew. its monday.</p>
<p>Has anyone who sent in quarter grades have those show up in their documents?</p>
<p>yup. it took about two to three weeks though.</p>
<p>@thegoldfinch- I have emailed 2 admin reps back in august/october. I have emailed them to let them know of an additional 3 unit class I had to take because the UC system asked me to take an additional .5 units. Someone also has recently written them a letter on my behalf, so not sure really of what exactly it could be.</p>
<p>@SouthOCtrojan - They save all emails/letters in your admissions file. So yeah you just described what it would be :)</p>
<p>ok. cool. thanks kulakai. I was just curious. My file is all complete and paid. so its all good.</p>
<p>anyone else COMPLETELY burned out from school and their CC? Im sooo done with mine. I cant stand it and this wait isnt making it any easier. lol, haha USC is like the freakin promised land now or something haha.</p>
<p>I wake up and get this email this morning; perhaps its a sign of good faith? Hopefully i’m not the only one receiving this:</p>
