LDmpp21 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Hey all - just FYI, I just heard back with an acceptance for the MPP and a pretty generous scholarship, and since people started hearing back last week it suggests they’re not necessarily going in order of funding and/or going fast (as we knew...) - so don’t lose hope (it was all in the email and I applied a few weeks before the priority deadline fwiw!)

river_xo_song Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I was also accepted to the MPP program last week. Admitted student day is on March 26, so I imagine they're going to work hard to get most decisions out before that! surreynotsurrey and anxious_coffee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surreynotsurrey Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Should've been clearer in my last post - I was also admitted to the MPP. However, I agree with river_xo_song, given tthat admitted students day is next week, I'm sure there will be some more movement on Price admissions.

ShirleyJ Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Emailed the Price Admission Office yesterday because I was getting anxious... they said "The committee reviews and releases decisions on a rolling basis. Decisions have already begun to be released but anyone could receive their application decision anytime between now and through April. There is no particular order...". A little confusing since I don't know if they mean that students who applied after the scholarship ddl could possibly hear back before those who applied by 12/15? I applied late January so hopefully can hear back before 4/15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC1225 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 What do you guys know about the MUP (Masters Urban Planning)? I was accepted to that too! I’m trying to figure out which one I should do between MPP, MPA, and MUP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtal Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Hopefully we'll hear from Price this week! The waiting has been...mildly agonizing. ? anxious_coffee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caramelcarrottop Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Anyone hear anything from USC yet? I'm still one of those who is waiting to hear back from them. I know that they said anytime from now through April, but has anyone seen movement? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really unfortunate that it's taken this long, but I understand that applications have probably gone up and admin/staff are at capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caramelcarrottop Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) I guess they've made their decisions. They're holding an online zoom course for those who've been admitted today. I can't imagine them holding a course unless they've already chosen their cohort. Congrats to those who got in.

tarofriend Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 It doesn't even make sense. I haven't see one person who applied after the scholarship deadline got in. So they don't even want to admit ppl who are willing to pay full tuition themselves? And if they already made their decisions, why don't they just send out rejections to the rest of us? I'm so confused and this wait is making me kind of annoyed. caramelcarrottop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anxious_coffee Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) Finally heard back. Got recommended for admission, but no mention of funding. So I’m 99% sure I got in without a scholarship. Looks like I’m not going to grad school this year ? Edited April 7, 2021 by anxious_coffee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting so I'm pretty sure that means a no for me. Even if they let me in I'm not sure if/how I can afford USC (assuming that I'm not going to get much if any scholarships).

Mpp_usc_applicant Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) Hey everyone! I applied April 5th - no news yet. Anyone else apply this spring (MPP)? I’m a bit late to the process but hoping I get in! I saw there was a student admit day - is there likely a second one for later admitted students?

I do - I submitted my official undergrad electronically which got retrieved about 2 weeks after I submitted my application. I graduated with another Masters degree in April and had to hard copy mail that transcript. In total I sent 3.. 1 undergrad, 1 graduate (grades as a current student without my last semester), and 1 with final grades after I graduated. Let’s hope we hear this week the wait is absolutely agonizing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
