Hello All

I finally got an interview from USC which will be my 2nd interview altogether.
They offer the following dates:

Jan 26
Feb 2
Feb 9
Feb 10

I was wondering if having an earlier date, for example Jan 26 vsus Feb 10 will really increase my chanse of getting acceptance!!!

It will be very difficult for me to make the dates before the Feb 10 ( but not impossible) and I was wondering if the 1 week or .. makes any difference in bringing my chanses down and ...

Thank you all for your help

normally picking the earliest date post-dec would be ideal since schools admit people on a rolling basis post-dec.

but it might not matter as much for usc because it appears they accept people in 4 "waves"--from their website:

"Generally, the class is assembled on the following cycle: December 1 – one quarter; February -- one quarter, March -- one quarter, April -- one quarter. After June 1, students are selected from the alternate list as needed to fill the class. "

Thanks J
You are correct. I called them up this morning but it seems like the one date for Jan is full. They said the dates for Feb does not make a difference as they make a decision at the end of the month.
