More than fill? that doesn't sound good......but i noticed everything is happening a lot earlier this year with usc, rejections, waitlists, etc....i didn't get my waitlist letter until may last year....this is like a full two months earlier....i'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, because does that mean that they already have almost enough acceptances? and the waitlist letter said they interviewed 600 people this year....100 more than last year....that sucks, since that means we're competing against that many more people for the same number of spots...
i talked to one of the secretaries in the admissions office, and i asked her if there was a max number of loi's one should send, and she said probably no more than five...i sorta meekly told her i had already sent in five, and she laughed and said then i think they'll know you really want to go here....i was planning on sending another loi next month, but i don't want to seem pushy (i'm not used to this whole agressiveness thing...don't want to cross a line from letting them know i really really really want to be there to i wish she'd just leave us alone...😀 )
