I was accepted by USD in early Feb, but haven't heard anything about scholarships. Looking at LSN, seems like most people in my range were offered 15,000 a year.

How have people heard about fin aid from USD? I shot them an email, but haven't gotten a reply. I've just been getting random mail about living in SD, and other stuff selling the area / school to me.

I was accepted a while back as well, and people with my numbers seem to have generally gotten at least a little something.

I've been debating whether to contact USD or not, and how to contact them (do I ask for reconsideration, or do I ask if they've considered it yet).

I'd love some input on this.

I've sent two emails in the past month and neither has gotten a reply. I just get generic mailings from them every few days.

I've had good communication with them. What are you asking about?

I asked for scholarship reconsideration and received a generic email back. Then a little while later I received an email from an actual person.

Wow! This thread just reminded me I applied there! Talk about lack of communication! My file has been completed or under Review since early November!

Same boat here. Applied in early November and still no word. 170/2.8, thought I would have heard something by now.

It's been ridiculous. They should have at least updated us once or twice. Maybe an email in January about statuses or something. It's a reach for me, but not sure I would attend even if admitted anymore. I hope for the students sake that the other departments of the school are not like their admissions office.

I'm biased when I say this.... because the chances of me attending USD in the fall are very very high. So take it with a grain of salt.

A student that the admissions office put me in touch with basically said that they don't send out any waitlists or rejects until march or april. I know it's already st patties, but they had more apps this year than before. I applied mid-late november and didn't hear until end of february, and I didn't think I was going to hear until march or april.

They've been slow with people whose numbers in their range, but if it's your reach school I wouldn't plan on hearing until after the deposit deadline.

Annoying yes, especially when do many schools communicate better.

This is norm for USD, fyi. I applied last year and didn't receive my final decision until mid-April (I applied in October)

Ouch! I'm going on a little over 3 months. USD is my top choice so it stings just a little bit.

Wow man. Why do they do shit like that? I've only been complete for 2 and a half months but I'm pissed off FOR YOU.

USD was my first choice but I've been shown much more love from Miami (accepted like 3 weeks after I applied) and now I'm considering putting my deposit down there before USD even gets back to me.

I'll be withdrawing soon. Hope another USD hopeful here gets my spot.

Thanks! It changed to "Decision Rendered" and it took a full week for the packet to arrive.

Have we thought of just sending an email in begging/asking for our app review since USD is the top choice and seat deposits are coming up soon for other schools.

I really think I'm on to something here :lol:

so who wants to send their email in first?

Anyone have luck negotiating their scholarship at USD? Just got a scholly at UF making it considerably cheaper than USD since I'm in-state. The thought of San Diego for 3+ years is very tempting...
