The Graduate Studies Committee of the USC Department of American Studies and Ethnicity has completed its review of applications for the doctoral program. I regret to report that we are unable to offer you admission for 2019-2020. We received close to 100 applications from students throughout the United States and abroad, but could admit less than 15. The deliberations were extremely difficult given the high caliber of the files we reviewed. Many qualified applicants were not admitted simply because of limitations of space, funding, and available faculty mentors. We thank you for your interest in USC and wish you success in your future academic endeavors. Due to the high volume of applications, we cannot comment on the merits of any individual application. But if you have any questions about our process, please feel free to contact me via email after April 15th. |

By the submitter of the 'GPA based poster': Thanks for your responses! Yes I have heard this from many others that the quality of education provided at USC is not worth the money we pay. Even I would prefer a lower ranked college like NCSU or Stony. |
