Here is that info I was thinking about for 2016, it was around 20:
Kirk Brennan, USC Associate Dean of Admissions, tweeted this about the appeals IT situation around 1PM PST:
“Still looking into why notification e-mails haven’t been received by those waiting for results of their appeal. We sent them Fri. …Many students have received the notification.”
THEN he tweeted this:
“We received approx 1,000 appeals. We approved very few, ~20, for either fall or spring adm. No news is not likely good news, unfortunately.”
