Has anyone recieved the mailing from USC for the interview yet? My date is tomorrow and the info didn't arrive in the mail yet (and I only live ~40 miles away). The person I spoke w/ on Monday said it should arrive but I just got home and its no bueno. If you have the package could you tell me anything I need to know as far as where to be and when. From the invitation email it looks like it starts at 8:30AM. I'm assuming I'll just go to the admissions office in the d-school building. I know I need a 2x2 photo and some survey (which will be impossible). Any other info I need would be much appreciated. Looking foward to meeting everyone there!

Anyone get a letter in the mail that says, "Your application has completed the preliminary review and will remain under consideration until the class is finalized in early August." Is this just a polite rejection? I figured if I was even remotely competitive they would give me an interview. Let me know if anyone else got the same thing.

I got the same mail today.
I guess that means they will be considering my application for the whole cycle until Aug. 2008.
Maybe they invite us after Dec.? I think USC is slow school.
Good luck~

All my stats are on predents w/ the same user name. I had my interview there last week; it's very different from traditional interviews in that it's a mock PBL session. The financial aid presentation was by far the best I'd seen. Good luck to all those still going to interview there.
BTW- If you park in the northwest lot, the parking machine takes only dollar bills.
