Anyone has access to the youSC portal? Well, I just got an email from USC asking me if I could send another version of my transcript, and youSC isn't working for me.

Hmmm.... ??

Hey Guys I've been a long time lurker here I too got on the waitlist for Production and I was wondering, does accepting the waitlist mean that you have an obligation to accept either a position in the fall if it opens up or the one in spring 2020 (sort of like an ED)? I ask because I am still waiting to hear back on decisions from a couple of other schools and don't want to commit to anything before I know!

I assume you would still have to pay the 1000 to secure your spot either way

I got on the waitlist!

I submitted my second application for MFA Film & TV production on Dec 10th, 2018. (it already passed the deadline, but the admission push back the deadline for me, cause I failed on last term Spring 2019.) I guess it is the latest submission. I saw a lot of people get interview notification. But I didn't hear any news from USC. I start to feel anxiety.

Mine wasn’t working either - try asking them if there’s a direct email you can send your transcript to or wait a couple days to see if youSC is just taking a weirdly long time to update ?

Yep, already sent them through the direct email address they gave me! It's a pretty weird situation overall, since I can't imagine them asking me to reupload my transcript if they were just going to outright reject me there and then (and this is after my MA uni here held my transcript for months even after the deadline pass for bureaucratic reasons).

I guess I just have to wait for this to sort out to get a clear answer. Congrats to everyone who got waitlisted, I hope I get to join you, one way or another!

Yes, I emailed the admission office, they told me it’s Guaranteed for Spring 2020 but waitlisted for Spring 2019.

Congratulations!!!

I remember it was two days before the deadline, so it was around Nov 13.

Appreciate your info. Cuz I submitted on Dec 10th. And I didn't hear anything back from USC. So I try to figure out how's the process going.

Hi all, I just joined this conversation quite late.. but I applied back in November and haven't still heard anything. I'm hoping for the best. All of this feedback is super helpful! Congrats for those of you who got accepted and interviews!

 

[WriterGirl33]

Any ideas if we receive a mailed version or our waitlist letter or is it just the emailed version?

I believe I saw someone earlier mention in this thread that they were sending out letters but that it would be a few weeks!

 

[starrcinema]

So has everyone heard back by now? Still crickets on my end. I’m from Canada. Hoping for the best ?

Have you heard anything back yet? Best of luck!

I was there on Monday for an info session and they said they should be finishing up MFA applications by the end of this week.

So maybe they'll send out more emails next Monday? I see a lot of you guys heard back on a Monday lol
