It is mean. Seriously... mean. And I remember reading (correct me if I'm mistaken) that finalaspects and JolieSaraLee went through review multiple times simply to be rejected. For G-d's sake, if you are going to reject these people...why put them through multiple reviews before doing so?

I had the same thing. 3 in review dates. Thats probably why it stings so much. I have no problem getting rejected, I just wish they could have done it 5 months ago like everyone else. I really got my hopes with all these in review dates, and the fact that it took so long. Its like my hope built up like a balloon, and they just popped it. At least I have a good option in Minnesota, but I really wish they would have handled it better.

I saw in your profile you got into Illinois...go to Illinois!! I go here for undergrad and it's amazing. I probably just outed myself, but w/e. My cycle is basically over anyway.

Does anyone even know what multiple review dates even signifies? It makes no sense to me... I treat it simply as a malfunction in their system, haha.

I was in the 4/26 batch, and the seat deposit for us is May 10th I believe... Good luck!!

I think it's a glitch too. I was IR 4/27 and then the very next day.. IR 4/28.

Exactly the same for me. Had been complete since November.

Decision finalized 5/3... anyone else getting this news today? I went back in review on 4/30 after being stuck in review ever since 2/16.

Still IR 3/26. I think you're in. Monday seems to be accept day for USC, followed by reject day on Tuesday. At least that has appeared to be the pattern in recent weeks.

missinglink · Post by **missinglink** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:01 pm

DF 5/3 too. Went into review twice, at least, 3/26 and 3/28. Complete since 1/28.

I haven't followed this thread too closely. How does USC notify applicants? Some schools only mail rejections, email WL, etc.

Aren't you pretty much assured being in with your numbers?

I guess if I don't get DF today, I have to assume a ding.

You would think so, but I had a DUI to deal with during the cycle. Not surprisingly, it throws things off a bit.

NoleinNY · Post by **NoleinNY** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:13 pm

Got my ding in the mail after going complete 1/27, to DF last week.

I will give them credit, though, for having (IMO) a much nicer rejection letter than GWU or UCLA.

Those two just said "We had a lot of people. Sorry. kthxbye." GW even had the nerve/bureaucratic incompetence to follow up my rejection with an advertisement for the law school as if I never applied at all...

At least SC invites one to apply as a transfer, essentially saying "Look, we liked your numbers a lot but we had soooo many people apply. Sorry we couldn't take you or put you on WL, but there is one possibility if you are still interested..."

Edit: Did any other recent dings get that kind of letter from SC?

savesthedayajb · Post by **savesthedayajb** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:14 pm

I got DF today too after Complete 1/14, IR 4/22 and 4/30. Im a reverse splitter for USC. But I'm hoping for the best, this is my last shot at a great SoCal school.

kommatas · Post by **kommatas** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:20 pm

Does USC send out decision mail the same day the status checker goes DF?

meddlingkid · Post by **meddlingkid** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:27 pm

DF 5/3 also...It's been almost exactly 5 months since I sent in my application. USC, I love you. I will attend no matter what. Please accept me.

DF 5/3 Anyone else?

savesthedayajb · Post by **savesthedayajb** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:30 pm

Weren't people that were accepted recently receive an email to access the admitted student website before they even got an acceptance letter?

primusux · Post by **primusux** » Mon May 03, 2010 4:31 pm

Are all of you DFs today accepting if you're in?
