<p>hey everyone,</p>
<p>my application status says that “The committee has acted on your application, and we have mailed notice of the decision.” and when on went on USC connect there is no option under admission for a deposit. Does this mean I didn’t get in? </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>this is probably a dumb question, but can someone explain to me what exactly the backdoor method is?</p>
<p>molamann: i turned my stuff in last Wednesday. but my status is still " we will be forwarding your grades to the committee for further review" </p>
<p>you got accepted fast! i wonder why mine is taking longer…</p>
<p>anyone know how long it takes? does it usually take over a week? or shorter?</p>
<p>any help is appreciated. thanks!!</p>
<p>@rbjhoops21 - It seems to be pretty random with Marshall sgr’s taking longer than other majors.</p>
<p>collegekid26, no, it doesn’t mean you didn’t get in.</p>
<p>arsenal924, <a href=“https://camel2.usc.edu/AdmCertification/Commit.aspx[/url]”>https://camel2.usc.edu/AdmCertification/Commit.aspx</a>. You’re checking to see whether you’re allowed to make an enrollment deposit, which indicates that you’re admitted. If you aren’t allowed, it doesn’t mean anything. Sometimes it takes longer to get put into the system.</p>
<p>kulakai: im not a marshall applicant. im a CLAS. </p>
<p>is it random for every major?</p>
<p>@rbkhoops - CLAS majors usually have a much quicker turnaround time from what I have noticed. It has generally been a week or two.</p>
<p>kulakai: a week or two? okay. then i guess i have some time to wait.</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>Well I just went ahead and made the deposit, hope I didn’t jinx myself or what not.</p>
<p>did you find out through the backdoor? or did you login into usconnect? where did it show up? admissions?</p>
<p>USConnect.</p>
<p>what time? </p>
<p>sry. im checking like crazy.</p>
<p>okay so my status changed today to we have made a decision and u should receive it in the mail shortly. im an sgr candidate. i logged into usc connect and it allowed me to submit my enrollment. i submitted the app and made the deposit. then it said congrats and welcome to the trojan family at the bottom. is it safe to say that i got in?</p>
<p>Yeah, you should be in. Congrats</p>
<p>arsenal are u marshall?</p>
<p>Been over a month since I dropped off my grades and still no status change. I never saw an update for my real application which just went to “Unable to authorize” or w/e and I checked it religiously. Maybe apps that aren’t accepted have this fate? Idk, but it sure seems like it. Depressing.</p>
<p>@ ballamalla1- yeah i applied as marshall first choice and econ as second</p>
<p>Honestly, should I email my admissions counselor, and ask him why my application is taking so long to process?</p>
<p>I have had my application in way before the initial deadline, and after I recieved an SGR, I turned that in relatively quickly as well. I believe I have waited a month after sending in my spring grades.</p>
<p>any thoughts ladies and gents? Frankly, i feel like if they’re going to reject me, do it already. I have plans of moving to make.</p>
<p>@beauselisk1990 - I’m in the same exact position. I’ve tried calling multiple times but they blow me off each time. I would think everyone would have their spring grades in by this point right?</p>
<p>@Beau/ Kulakai</p>
<p>I’ve waited a month also. First I emailed admissions, and got the standard “please give us more time” response. So i waited two weeks, called, “please give us more time”. E-mailed my admissions counselor on Friday… no response yet. I guess i’ll call again today, probably to hear them say “please give us more time.” If I get rejected because they “didn’t receive spring grades”, I’m going to be PlSSED!</p>
