University of Southern California Graduate School Admission Results

I sent an email to Viterbi Graduate Admission specifically asking about the people who were not invited to the last event (Feb 19th - posted even on Instagram) and about our chances (I mean, if that non-invitation was an expected reject). The response basically was: "the most of decisions will be sent to April 15th". Besides, for them, it's impossible to indicate when a certain application is reviewed. Please guys, if someone is admitted and non-invited to these meetings, please confirm that we can trust them. Since we paid for application, that's a product with a kind of warranties.

Never completed my app here, so must be a formality in the admissions process to tell everyone who STARTED an app (even if not complete) that they're rejected. Otherwise, a very snarky, boarderline unprofessional email. Not even a façade of "we had so many great applicants" - it was simply "nope, you're not coming here"

Saw this late last night, meaning I received four rejections in just one day. Finally have received word from all schools and know where I will be attending next year. Im excited! Good look to everyone else! 2a/2w/6r

email from Sarah Esquivel on 2/19. Received 25% merit scholarship

Got the most lackluster 2 sentence rejection email, wish they had at least sent a standard rejection letter. Congrats to those who got in!

Got the email from admission office informing that the result has been posted on the website. Expected as I didn't get the acceptance mail last week.

Most insensitive rejection. lol. Guess, it shows the school culture.

Anyone else received this weird email today? I can\'t see any update on my application status and the link in the email does not work. "Our admissions committee finalized their decisions late last week and we posted all admission decisions on the YouSC portal ****** this past Tuesday, February 23rd. It has come to our attention that the decisions we inputted can take up to 48-72 hours to update, which is the reason why many of you are still not able to view a decision online."

I'll share something weirder. I received the same simple but confusing email one hour ago. The thing is, I never applied to USC !! I did send my TOEFL scores to them but I did not register in their application system. Not to mention submitting my application. So

"Dear Applicant, The Department of Sociology is sorry to inform you that you were not admitted to the program this year. We wish you well in all of your endeavors. All the Best, Sociology" Extremely disrespectful email. At first, I thought it was also a spam email. You'd think a school with all that money would at least show some respect with folks who took time and PAID to submit an application.

I had already received an alert to check portal a few days ago, but then I just received another email to reassure me that I had been rejected. The email was the weirdest rejection letter I had ever received - like something that was written within 3 minutes. Compare to the Umich rejection letter, it was pretty unprofessional.

0a/3w/1i/8r/4p. I thought the e-mail was spam at first. "Dear Applicant, The Department of Sociology is sorry to inform you that you were not admitted to the program this year. We wish you well in all of your endeavors . All the Best, Sociology"

I emailed them two days ago and got the rejection letter just now.

GPA is grad. Have not received official rejection but email said if you have not been accepted, you are rejected (bit weird in my opinion). 1a/4r/1p

Email received (under promotions tab in Gmail) of acceptance w/ 75% tuition covered with scholarship. Official notification from USC coming within 48 hours

Same situation as others. I did not receive the acceptance email, so the email sent out today told me I have been rejected.
