Notified by graduate school on 1/22. Annenberg emailed on 1/25 to notify funding. Letter says it best: "Our admission offer includes an exceptional five-year financial support package. This package provides a one-year Annenberg/Graduate School Fellowship without work or research obligations beyond your own coursework. The year of fellowship must be taken within the first five years of your doctoral program; most new students use the fellowship in the first year. Additionally, you will receive four years of Graduate Assistantship support from the USC Annenberg School where you will serve as a research and/or teaching assistant. During these five years, the financial support package includes an annual stipend of at least $30,000 for the first four years and $25,000 for the fifth year, payment of up to 36 approved units of tuition per year, year-round health and dental insurance, and some mandatory fees. You may also receive additional summer support from other sources and be eligible for scholarships or other research funds from the Graduate School."

Crickets so far. Judging from last year's response timeline I'm most likely not being considered for entry, otherwise you'd feel interviews and initial contact would be in order.
