USC Film & TV Production MFA Fall 2021 Applicants Unite!

[ShereanJ]

As a waitlist student should I be doing this stuff for financial aid now?

 

[ShereanJ]

Mine also says this

Are you waitlisted ? Should we be getting the financial aid stuff situated even though it's not guaranteed until Spring?

I am waitlisted, but I figured they’d at least have my FAFSA in the system. I’ll call tomorrow to see

Need to call them to tell them I submitted my fafsa

I emailed the sca admissions team and said applicants would still be considered for scholarships and financial aid if they either got admitted or waitlisted (this is for the films production program)

For those who are waitlisted, your decision status page in YouSC portal is still empty, right?!

Yea, I think our admissions letter will pop up if we get admitted for either fall or spring

Just got off the phone with financial aid and they had to add my social security number to my application to confirm my fafsa was correct.
I was also told to do the USC Financial Aid Supplement (located here: 1. youSC portal 2. check the status of your financial aid application 3. USC Financial Aid Supplement.)

Now my portal looks like I have submitted everything correctly! They said financial aid packages will probably go out sometime in May.

People who got accepted (w/o waitlist) - do you know by when you have to make your decision and confirm your enrollment?

 

[sundaesorceress]

All the accepted and waitlisted students, please let me know if you are interested in joining our Facebook group and I'll message you the link

Just saw this! I'm a waitlisted student, would love to get in on this facebook group if it's still open!

For screenwriting, it is April 15. I believe you can look at your yousc portal for the info, to confirm.

We have a wait-list thread too

Waitlist Support Group 2021

Hey guys! I was waitlisted for two programs, so I think we could all benefit from somewhere we can talk about it. So this is just for anyone who was waitlisted anywhere and the waiting is killing them. :)

I'm waitlisted for fall and admitted for the spring. I'm wondering whether I should just assume I'll be going in the spring, or still hold out that I might get off the waitlist. Does anybody know of people being accepted for the term they applied for off the waitlist?

Yes, it's the same for production as well.

I saw last year that people were getting off the waitlist from April to August. Someone even got off the waitlist the first week of class!

Totally. A friend of mine found out he was off the waitlist 3 weeks before classes started.

does anyone know when we hear back about scholarships? Hopefully before April 15 right?
