It seems that someone got accepted at USC! It was an email to check the portal in the middle of the night, kind of strange, lol

 

Hi, it was me!! I am still shaking from reading the letter. They sent the email at 1:00 AM PST, lol

Because it would make too much sense to let everyone know so they can make their decisions. ???

Yeah, I think so! I was looking for past years, and they usually send acceptances in one day and, 10 days letters, rejections lol. But I believe they send emails throughout the day, not at once

Hoping you’re right here! No email for me either. I’m sure it was a super competitive pool, as it is always, and I’m trying not to expect too much.

Yeah! Same here... But I do believe that they will send emails throughout the day (maybe I am wrong)

Heeey! To be honest, next year, try to apply to at least 5-7 programs, it will increase your chances. I was accepted there and I can share it with you, no problems. Send me your e-mail

Hi, sorry but is it possible that you can share it with me as well? I want to know about what would have gone wrong on my SOP!

I did, yes! Automated mail from the Grad Admissions at 1:03AM PST  to check like a secondary admissions portal, very odd but that's apparently how they always do it haha

Thank you so much!!! I applied to very few schools and this was my last one (was waitlisted at U of M American Culture, but rejections across the board at the other 3) so it's such a relief. It does seem very oddly structured and impersonal so far; haven't had any direct communication with the program (I spoke with my POI last fall just casually but nothing past that) so I am eager for more information and funding package. If anyone hears anything or knows what to expect please let me know ?

It is I who is annoying every professor on the department asking for updates. If they haven't rejected me already, they might just do it for all the updates I have been requesting

Haha! Thanks so much for being the assertive one for all of us.

ANY NEWS FROM NYU MCC? They are taking so long I'm going nuts. I know some folks got their rejection letter and my application is still under review in the portal, so I take it as a good sign?

SHEEZ VIRTUAL HUGS EVERYONE I hope this dreadful wait ends soon
