USC Status Update

^A_Procastinator, I THINK “forwarded” usually means good news is on its way. As in scholarships…

?

manyamile · February 4, 2010, 7:03pm

Got the letter today

cdr777 · February 4, 2010, 7:08pm

I have had the “forwarded” status for about a week now and I think it is a good thing based only on the fact that someone from one of the other threads I think cody something recently went from the “forwarded status” to the “acted on” status.

A_Procrastinator · February 4, 2010, 7:20pm

i didn’t make the scholarship deadline! LOL. I still hope good news is on the way though. I remember reading somewhere- I believe the “2009 stats only admit” thread- that usually about two days after the forwarded status, people received the “acted on” status. However, I’ve also heard people going from “forwarded” back to “we are reviewing” status so i’m really not sure. Can someone else shed some light on the “forwarded” status?

S’s counselor spoke to the USC rep for our school - he was supposed to have gotten the no scholarship/send grades letter. It was mailed last week. We live about 20 minutes from USC and never got it. So there you have it.

Question…and maybe it’s been answered in the 90,000 posts already(!) but what about the Dean’s…if you are to be awarded that scholarship, do you think that will still need to wait till March/April to find out? Or those to be coming in another wave? D got the “no scholarship” letter today but she is still holding out hope for the Dean’s.

A_Procrastinator · February 4, 2010, 8:47pm

dkloos^
I believe some applicants who received the “no scholarship letter” received the dean’s scholarship with their acceptance in the first wave. I may be wrong though soooo yeah =]

^^any comments on forwarded status?

still no letter today… well, my parents got a small USC Financial Aid one, but nothing we hadn’t seen before.

My status has been “under review by admissions committee” for ages… on Monday it changed into “Preliminary review” status…

then today, I checked my status and it says “forwarded to committee review”

Handlebars · February 4, 2010, 10:18pm

i received the dean’s scholarship along with my acceptance in the first wave, but did NOT receive the “no scholarship” letter

A_Procrastinator · February 4, 2010, 10:27pm

Handlebars (and to anyone with knowledge of the matter)-

First off grats on acceptance and deans! (although many are bitter about not receiving Trustee/Pres lol)

I’m assuming you kept track of your statuses,… is “forwarded” shortly followed by “acted on”? I’ve heard some people go from “forwarded” to a new status change within days, and others who have had “forwarded” for at least a week. I’m not sure when the 2nd wave hits, but I anticipate an “acted on” maybe tomorrow with a letter in the mail soon. Then again, I’m an optimist.

Handlebars · February 4, 2010, 10:39pm

yeah, i am a little bitter about not getting at least presidential. thank god for national merit…

i never got the “acted on” status. it changed to “forwarded” for a day, then went back to the original status “committee is reviewing…april 1st” by the next day. unless it changed to “acted on” and changed back while i wasn’t looking, but i checked my status fairly often that day.

also something to note, my acceptance package was postmarked the same day that my status changed to forwarded

omar10 · February 4, 2010, 10:59pm

mines at forwarded right now so hopefully that means something good…

aznteiryakichef · February 4, 2010, 11:01pm

Ok, how many received the Dean’s scholarship + acceptance but not Presidential / Trustee already? I am really confused and worrying even more because I heard someone from here in Indiana just got it yesterday, yet that makes no sense viewing his stats! I don’t mean to sound bitter about this person, but his testing scores are well below average of almost everyone here who posted and who received the no scholarship letter and he has absolutely no EC to speak of! Who gets these scholarships??

A_Procrastinator · February 4, 2010, 11:04pm

“also something to note, my acceptance package was postmarked the same day that my status changed to forwarded”

^^I was so excited when i read this. Then i remembered the people who have had “forwarded” for a while. sigh

If you’re reading this and you’ve had the “forwarded status” before, can you post whether you’ve 1) been accepted, 2) received “acted on” status shortly after, 3) received different status after, or 4) still have forwarded status (also state how long you’ve had it) or 5) anything different =P

thanks

thanks for responses. So if you didn’t get an acceptance in the first wave, and got the “no Scholarship” letter, I am assuming that it’s a no-go for the Deans? And more importantly, these kids hear April 1 as usual? No rolling admits for December 1 applicants if you weren’t selected for scholarship? Status is still on the “completed preliminary review”.
