USC 2011

[FiveSermon]

Got denial in the mail today in the midwest. DF 4/8. Oh well, I'm considering my cycle over at this point and unless I move off the BU or Vandy wait list with money I'm going to WUSTL. GL everyone.

What about Cornell at sticker?

[jwmalone87]

DF today. Fully expecting my ding.

Seems like those of us DF today are in a 166-167, good but not amazing GPA range. Not to be all Debbie Downer, but I'm wondering if this is a wave of dings...

[rlt2107]

DF 4/11 - my #s are in profile - anyone else?

Softs don't matter.

It's possible, but USC's admissions is as numbers-centic as I've ever experienced. I'm hoping my softs + PS can sway them, but I can't get over how none of us have spectacular numbers...I desperately hope I'm wrong, but I'm just trying to temper my expectations a little.

What about Cornell at sticker?

I have a boat load of undergrad debt (83k) that would make Cornell at sticker pretty hard to swallow. I was strongly considering U of M at sticker if I was accepted though so I'd at least give it some consideration. My ugrad debt almost locks me into the biglaw path no matter where I go and it really blows hard.

DF 4/11!!!!! 171/3.6 here, fingers crossed!

Your numbers give me hope

Waitlisted. 159/166/3.7, UG: UCLA. Found out while in the airport on the way back from visiting ND. Is USC worth sticker? ND offered 30k and cost of living is like half of that in LA. I'm pretty sure that I don't want big law. I want to work in LA for sure. I am debt averse.

FWIW: ND was great. Really comfortable and seems like a great fit.

I wonder if, on some tiny level, SC discriminates against LA grads, and vice versa. Or maybe they encourage it to try and convert them... any thoughts?

Actually UCLA and Cal each had more than USC this past year

edit: Though this might due to the larger student body size at UCLA and Cal

DF 4/11 - To help extinguish hope, 165/3.6/non-URM here. .

[jman77]

Waitlisted in the past few hours... It was still IR 4/10 when I checked earlier.

[feyonce]

if this gives anybody hope, i got into usc last week with 163 / 3.7! i am a URM, but still... that should be hope!

[hector311]

Waitlisted today. 168/3.4.

Slightly surprising.

Waitlisted as well. Did all the waitlisted get the same email today (or whenever they sent it to you) saying

"As mentioned in the initial wait list e-mail, USC LAW is conducting video interviews as part of the wait list selection process. You are strongly encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to give a more well-rounded and personalized picture of yourself."

This is my EXACT situation....I guess I'll be seeing you at WUSTL! (or BU if we get off the WL)

DF 4/11 as well- 168/3.44, went to UCLA for UG

[cslopez5]

For anyone that's reserved their scholarship offer through email have you received confirmation about it?

[jwmalone87]

No decision over the phone.

She did ask for my name and looked up my file, and by the suddenly sympathetic tone in her voice the news is probably not good. I have a feeling that if any of you are East coast, though, they may give you the decision.

[Puttanesca]

For anyone that's reserved their scholarship offer through email have you received confirmation about it?

Yes, I received a confirmation, but it was about a week-and-a-half after I sent the email to reserve my scholarship offer. I emailed USC on March 26 and got the confirmation on April 6.

[TR Fan]

Just waitlisted, after applying in early November.

[nakiko2003]

DF 4/6 why there are still no news in NC? i've been checking my mail box every singles day....
