Graduate School Admission Results

I'm such a winner because I didn't get into any schools in my first cycle so that I have to pay $$$ to get a useless mater degree. I score perfectly on GRE (btw, if you want to know, it's 321, I doubt if anyone can beat me). And USC only gives me $28,930 each year. Are they stupid? They aren't going to get me with this. I belong to Harvard. We will see.

To the two posters below who received acceptances from USC, was this your first time hearing from them or had received correspondence before?

To the USC poster Below, Bro, I'm in the same boat... and I'm sure a lot of us are still waiting. I called them a couple of days ago and they informed me that we will be notified in May... but they didn't address my query at all... They didn't even let me inform them about which degree I was applying for, As soon as I mentioned that the call was regarding admissions they just said May. I asked if they could give a less vague answer but they said that they can't. I just spoke to a friend of mine who got an admit from the Electrical Department for Spring'17 and she informed me that the email says that the candidate should accept the offer by May 2nd. So, I'm guessing they'll get back to us only after that. May the odds be ever so in our favor. Good luck!

2 year fellowship

To the University Of Southern California poster below, Can you share your profile please?

Offered 27k Stipend and tuition waivers. Is this some kind of joke? I have a master's degree in hand and scored a 320 on GRE. I will reject.

Copying an email from USC here: " Thank you for your application to USC. In response to your email, the academic departments are doing their best to make all PhD admission decisions before April 15. Also, I encourage you to visit our Frequently Asked Questions page (https://viterbigradadmission.usc.edu/programs/masters/faq/) for assistance with most application related issues. Please don't hesitate to contact us if we can be of additional assistance."

Got 19 spring admission

Finally! Had to wait a long time for this admit. Got a mail to check the online portal.

To the posters below. The financial aid deadline email clearly states that it has no connection to admission status. You cs try calling the department, but they will just give you a generic answer that you will get an email anytime between now and May. What deadline to notify of acceptance did you Fall and Spring admits get?

Got mail to check decision on you.usc portal. The portal displayed academically eligible.

Generic email from DCT. On-site interviews 1/30.

Got mail to check decision on you.usc portal. The portal displayed academically eligible.

Studied engineering in state school. Spent last 3+ years working in a software company (but wasn't doing programming work). Submitted one letter of recommendation. USC sent me an email telling me to check the you.usc.edu site and there I saw the Acceptance letter!

Anyone get accepted for the game development specialization yet?

Did anyone with an AI/NLP background get an admit to USC Phd?

To the poster below, I had an interview with my POI's PhD student last month. Since then, I haven't heard anything from neither the POI nor the department. It is strange USC gave this few PhD admissions until now this year according to the gradcafe.
