USC MFA Applicants Spring 2015

Hi guys! I'm in for the Spring 2015 class (one of the waiting list from fall peeps)
Wanna get to know my fellow Trojans classmate ... my FB name is " Thanika Jenjesda " add me ;B
 
Hi guys. I know you're all still waiting to hear from USC, and I remember the anxiety I went through just to hear anything. But when you do get that good news, hit me up. I've started a FB group for our 15' Spring Class.
 
Thanks!
I got an unexpected phone call from USC on 10/3. Just asked me a few questiones and informed me this is the interview.
Yes! Persistence pays off! Never give up, guys.
 
Congrats! I thought things were going really slow with informing people. But maybe you're the start of things.
 
Hi guys,

Just got the admission letter. I've applied to USC for three times. Finally, I got in. So, don't give up!

Congratulations! Don't give up is right. You must be pumped. Seeing you went through the process before, can I ask if you applied year to year? Or if did you take two years between application, etc.?

Also do you know if it's true you can only apply three times to USC, or did they get rid of that rule?

Yes, I applied to USC fall 2013, fall 2014, and spring 2015. For the first two times I even didn't get the interview.

And for the second question, I don't know if there is a rule about you can only apply three times to USC. This is the first time I hear this rule.
 
I received my upbeat rejection letter on Saturday. I'm wondering for those who reapplied how much of your submission did you change? Or did you keep everything you submitted the same?
 
I havent heard anything yet? Did you get an actual mailed letter, email or status update on USConnect?

While I am happy for anyone who gets in, I cant help wonder about the integrity of the process. I was on the orginial interview list and had a formal interview with a professor. However, it seems like they also just made phone calls after the formal interviews and called that an "interview". Ok if I wasnt selected, guess I'll apply again.

Thanks for the reply. A couple years ago I could have sworn it was a rule at USC, as it is with AFI, but maybe I'm all mixed up.

I never received an email from USC to inform me that they want to interview me. I got a call on October 2nd. They emailed me for asking my current address on October 10th and thenI found I can log in Camel. About the phone interview, I heard they used to do that before.
 
I check their USC site which, we have access to after applying, every day and have heard nothing since I updated financial aide and housing form over a month ago. I guess if I haven't heard anything to date, no interview, no emails, then I guess it should be safe to assume, a rejection letter is probably in the mail... :(
