Glad I'm not alone
Hmm that's what I was thinking too. I also saw the $1,938/unit on Price's website. USC's Schedule of Classes (https://classes.usc.edu/term-20211/tuition-and-fees/) says it's $1,995/unit though, which is a little off from the amount on Price's website. But I think we can assume (?) that it'd be around $24,000 for tuition. I'm not sure if there are other fees that would exponentially increase the amount that we'd be paying. I wish they were transparent about this...
If you don't mind me asking, who did you try contacting and did you have any luck getting a response at all? No luck on my end.
Also, congrats on your acceptance!! That's amazing
Thank you! Congrats on your acceptance as well!!
I'm thinking that the $1,995 is for the average for the department as a whole, not specifically MUP? But I agree that it's basically $24K a semester. I have been in contact with the financial aid office via phone and they say that we won't get our financial aid packet/summary until May at the earliest- which is after the decision deadline. So that includes stuff about loans and i'm guessing how much we have to pay as well.
This is another link I've been looking at if you want to see the "all in" costs (https://financialaid.usc.edu/graduates/admitted/how-much-wil-my-education-cost.html). I just replaced the tuition with the 24K since Price gave us a number to work with.

Hey all! I've been accepted to USC's MUP with the Dean's Merit Scholarship, which is covering 75% of my tuition. Does anyone know how much the tuition for USC's MUP program is? I know there are other fees on top of tuition sometimes. I've tried reaching out to them via email, but they haven't been responsive at all. It's been frustrating, since I'm trying to finalize my decision as to which school I should attend
In this same exact boat. I got the 75% merit as well. From what I can find online, they say each unit is $1,938 and if you take 12 units each semester then that totals $23,256/semester? With 75% off then that leaves $5,814/semester for tuition if my math is right. It would be easier if they just calculated everything for you so we'd know exactly what we're coming out of pocket ?

Someone just created a USC Price facebook group so that admitted students can connect and help support each other as the decision deadline approaches! Feel free to share and join:

Would anyone be interested in a "USC Price Fall 2021 Admitted Students" facebook group or something similar, so we can get to know each other? I could make one and maybe the admissions office will help share it out
It sucks that the admitted students events will have to be virtual again this year. If I set up a very casual (masked) admitted student meet-&-greet at a park near campus, would people be interested in attending?
I'd be down in joining a Facebook group. I feel like all us admitted students are scattered so it'd be nice to have a central location to discuss things

I definitely understand that. From the times I've called the finaid office, they've been pretty helpful & nice. Plus, there's not usually any wait time either. Nice to know someone else in the same boat. Best of luck! Maybe we'll end up there together haha, gonna continue comparing offers and go to the admitted student events next week too. PM me if ever you want to chat!
