Just had an email to say I've been waitlisted!

Were you waitlisted for graduate or undergrad? Sorry about the waitlist but way better than a rejection!

I applied for gradschool!

Yoon · Feb 29, 2024

Just to clarify... If I'm on the waitlist, even if I'm not off for this fall semester, am I guaranteed attending for next spring semester?? Based on the threads of past applicants, I think so. But bit confused

Yea I think that's the case it's also written in the email

I am in the same situation, I just curious about the differences between starting in the Spring semester as opposed to the traditional Fall intake. Do students starting in the Spring follow the same curriculum as those who begin in the Fall, or are there variations in course offerings and sequencing?

Kind of a silly question lol but for those of you attending Admitted Grad Students day later this month, what are you planning on wearing? Like do you think the dress code is business casual (nice trousers and a button down shirt/blouse), or do you think it would be acceptable to come casual in jeans?

Oooo...good question...I feel like I might wear black jeans and a nice shirt (if I end up being able to go!) Somewhere in the middle I guess between casual and biz casual

No variations, it’s the exact same curriculum. The only difference is graduation, there’s no winter graduation at USC so you can walk your penultimate semester or the spring after

Update on financial aid: my FAFSA was processed today, and I also got an invite from USC for a virtual financial aid session that will explain the fin aid process at USC.

Also, in that email they said: "Please note, if you applied for SCA Scholarships as part of the SlideRoom application, notifications will be sent out to recipients the week of March 29."

I wonder if waitlisted students for spring who have applied for scholarships will receive anything! If anyone finds out then please let us know. If USC can offer me any financial aid I'll be attending the spring over UCLA.

Hi everyone! I have heard very different opinions on the MFA Film/Television program, are those of you who are admitted decide to go? SCA has a good reputation but I am a bit worried about the curriculum (disorganized, prof doesn't care enough etc.) Any intakes will be appreciated!
