Do y'all think CSULB is gonna release decisions right around Jan 15 this year? I saw that's when people found out last year but that's the same day as some deposit deadlines....
 
Those who were already accepted to USC - when is your deposit due? Is it different based on when you received your acceptance? I haven’t heard anything yet
 
Anyone still waiting on western university Pomona and Oregon campus? I have yet to receive an interview invite or rejection email.

Waiting on Pomona. I know they were out of office 12/17-01/03 so perhaps we’ll hear from them this month. According to last year they were sending out invites all the way till April
 
Did anyone else receive the email from CSULB about their virtual open house at the end of January? Weird how admissions decisions aren’t out but they sent an email about the open house.

My friend and I received that same email from CSULB and we thought the same thing

I have to put the deposit in by January 21st for the residential program, but I haven't heard back on the hybrid program yet...this makes me think the decision deadline is based on the acceptance date?
 
PSA to anyone that applied to SDSU. I was just on hold with the admissions office for about an hour since I got an email that my app was incomplete. Lady on the phone said there was a hold on my app because of an AP score -_- so she just sent a request to lift that hold. So if it shows they received everything but your app is still incomplete you might wanna call but don't freak like me lol
 
Hey everyone, I was accepted to MSMU a couple of weeks ago, and I am looking to connect with others that have been accepted. Anyone else planning on attending in the fall?
 
Anyone hear anything from
CSULB, CSUN, USC?

Still awaiting to hear back, just got conformation emails from them back in oct!

Still waiting for decisions from CSULB & SDSU, waiting to see if I'll even get an interview from WesternU and CSUN.
Waitlisted for SMU, i feel like anyone in top 20 has a very good chance but you never know.

As of now my plan is to attend MSMU unless I get into a CSU
 
Still waking to hear back from western U. They’re on break so it won’t be until after Jan 3. I just wanna know if I get an interview or rejected. Not sure why it’s taking them so long to review my application. App verified 10/13 and Casper received 11/30
Got accepted to WesternU a couple weeks ago. Had my interview early December.
 
Idk how western is giving out their interviews. Seems so random. I’ve been waiting since October. I feel like they lost my app in the queue or something. Jaziel told me my app is being reviewed but idk. That was a month ago.

Michael updated me because there was an error with my application but fixed now. He also said in the email that my application is under review and this email was on 12/13/21
Jazel and Robbin emailed me 12/14 saying my app is being sent to admissions for review but idk. Honestly over a month now without any word.
I haven’t heard anything since submitting my app in September. Should I contact them?

yea exactly over a month of reviewing an app is a bit much in my opinion. But I've looked at older threads for western U every says their communication is horrible with applicants idk if its cause there understaff or what.

I checked my portal and it still says “application is being sent to admissions for processing” which means they probably haven’t even reviewed it yet.
 
My experience with WesternU (I applied last cycle with them) is they are completely horrible with communicating. I never expected much from their messages/emails, and just waited for them to respond. I understand a lot of you want to know now, but it’s grad school and they play by their own rules. I emailed them before about a bunch of things and I either got a random response, no answer at all, or I just let it go.

I withdrew my application in August, after being waitlisted since Jan 2020, because I decided the move to SoCal wouldn’t work out for me long term, and it took 5-6 weeks after classes started to even send me an email saying I didn’t get in. 🤷‍♂️ So good luck to all of you waiting on them, hope it doesn’t just add on more stress/worry to your life.

I didn’t even get word about an interview invitation or rejection. So idk what they’re even doing
 
Thats horrible. I’ve been waiting almost 3 months now. Hopefully I get some update after the Jan 15 deposit deadline
I submitted in September and still no answer lol I think I’m gonna try to contact them tomorrow. I’ll let you know if I get any response

I think if you get accepted you get a call
Oh, yeah you are probably right.

Also for the person that asked when we will hear back from Sac State, I got a call from Sac State to schedule interview today, so you will be hearing from Jerri sometime this week if you haven’t already!
