USC Class of 2028 — Regular & Early Action Decisions

I applied RD to USC a week ago and submitted my SAT scores throught the Common app. For a few other schools I applied to, the SAT section on my portal read as “Not Recieved” until a few days after my submission. I assumed some documents took more time than others to register on my portal as “Recieved”.

However for USC, my SAT score still says “Awaiting.” Does this mean USC does not accept the Common app scores I self-submitted and if so, how did you all approach submitting them through the portal? Would a screen grab of my score from College Board suffice?

I attached pic . You can report it through portal.

Does anyone else have the option to upload a final transcript to the portal?

I doubt someone would lie about an AO… that seems risky…

Or the option to upload a gap year extension

Our portal hasn’t changed and I don’t see any upload options. Just states that the common app was received and that the high school transcript was received (both on 10/23). Where is that on your portal?

In the Upload Materials section, you can click to see the dropdown above the red Upload Button. In the Dropdown I see Gap Year and Final HS Transcript along with other options.

For those who applied regular - did you receive email from financial aid yesterday about deadline dates to submit FA?

Yes, those are options in my daughter’s portal as well. However, I don’t know if they are new or have always been there.

My Portal has changed. Mid Year Transcript updated.
does anyone has same information?

Yes, we have those options. Though I don’t remember if they have always been there.

The update picture error occurs here. :face_with_head_bandage:
On Application check list of your portal, you can see the supporting document uploaded list.

We have updated mid year report because my son made sure the school counselor sent it in. We also have that drop down menu, and probably has always been there based on having everything you could think of to upload. Good luck to everyone! I think my son would rather also include rejections just to have a more definitive answer…

I don’t think that is indicative, just when the school sends the mid year report, some schools end Sem1 later and some earlier. Eitherway we will find out soon enough!

The upload option changed. We see final transcript and AP/IB score reports in the drop-down menu. They were not there before.

Do you remember that “Gap Year Explanation” was there before?
