mpp.2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Is anyone else interested in attending USC? I got my decision letter via email this morning at 4:30 am. No mention of funding, so I'm hoping that comes later. USC is one of my top choices because of their strengths in urban planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengacats Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 May I ask which program you applied to? Was it the MPP or something else? I applied to USC Price, but haven't heard anything yet. I just checked the portal and they haven't posted anything either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpp.2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 Oh, yes, sorry; should have specified. I applied to the Price MPP on the 12/15 scholarship deadline and the decision letter was posted today on the "yousc" portal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpp.hopeful Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 @mpp.2020 I also received notification of acceptance (MPP) via email at that early hour. No mention of funding either. Looks like from the forum people get notified of $ within a few days/week of acceptance, so fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danichole Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I applied for the MPA and haven't heard anything yet! I was hoping since it is all Sol Price they would come out at the same time, but maybe not? Anyone else heard anything for MPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpp.hopeful Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 @mpp.2020 I received a packet of information in the mail today containing my funding offer. Hope yours comes soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polapp20 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 @jengacats same boat as you. Have not heard back from USC yet. Also applied to the MPP program. But I am an interrnational applicant so idk if there is a difference in notification times. Anyway, good luck to those who got in! Fingers crossed that they are still sending deicions.

WhoaThereWombat Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Word on the street is that there's no longer a separate Dean's Merit event, so the general Admitted Students Day should have everyone (Friday, March 27th). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qtcw Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Just heard back from them! Got admitted to the MPA program with funding. Still waiting for other schools. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumaya Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) Received my MPA acceptance in the mail today, with a full tuition scholarship! I still haven't received notification via email/the online portal, so they're probably sending out acceptance letters via snail mail first.

Thanks for letting us know because I still haven’t seen anything in my portal. Are you an international student ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Krab Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I am not an international student, but I was also notified about my admission decision last Thursday. I just checked the website again and it says in the FAQ that they were planning to get decisions out by mid-March. I also got a scholarship, so based on that and the posts I'm seeing in this thread, it's possible that they're only notifying award recipients now and will be releasing the rest of the decisions at some later date. I have very little to base that on, however, so I could be totally wrong - in which case, don't mind me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danichole Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Similar to others, I received my acceptance via portal this morning and my physical letter in the mail later in the day. I received 50% tuition with the Dean's Merit Scholarship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polapp20 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Finally received my acceptance via email today! Received a 75% Dean’s Merit Scholarship. Congratulations to everyone accepted and good luck to everyone who hasn’t heard back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PP2020 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) Do they email financial aid decisions as well? Or just send them out via mail? Edited February 24, 2020 by PP2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got both my acceptance and financial aid decision via email. But I am an international student. Looks like domestic students got it in the mail.

mpp.maybe Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I got my acceptance on Friday (2/21) and a packet in the mail on Monday (2/24) with the Admitted Student Day information. The packet did not include anything about funding. Did I not get any funding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
