USC Fall 2010

Hey, y'all, I can't quite keep up with all of this, but I don't think USC monitors this website. If I remember correctly, the Starkies my acceptance year all deleted their posts, too...

I got my USC ID when I created my application, oh so long ago, had to use it on my app materials as well, and now, two months before graduation, it's still the number USC uses for me! Who'da thunk it.

I congratulate those of you who have heard good news, and implore the rest of you all to keep creating regardless of these decisions...you do not have to go to film school to have a career in this industry.

The rest of y'all, hang in there!

Int'l people, I think you just need your visas set up, but you're in based on what you presented to the forum.

I wish you all the best of luck, guys. I've been doing a lot of reflection on my years here and I'm holding no regrets at all...and I wish the same for you.
 
Omelette I called the International Student Office and they forwarded me to the Admissions office. There I talked to a young lady who said that:

" They want to admit you and all you need to give them is those documents. "

Which means simply: " Yeah, you're accepted, good lad. "

They will send the official stuff once we can guarantee we can pay'em.

I'm from Turkey, where are you from? Of course, let's keep in touch and hang out once we arrive there.
 
Just got the official email:

Dear (Ben),

Congratulations! I am happy to inform you that you have been admitted to the USC School of Cinematic Arts for Fall 2010. I know that it has been at least three months since you submitted your application and thought you would be happy to hear about your admission. You will be receiving an official letter and admissions packet in the next few days. This past year was the most competitive in SCA's history and so you should be proud of your admission to the School.

------

So look out for these in the next few days (or minutes!)

Congrats Magneeta!

Just curious what timestamps did each of your e-mails have? Wondering if I should hope for anything at this point...
