Still waiting for a response on my application. I submitted it back in December. I emailed Liz Carley and she says my application is still being considered. So keeping my fingers crossed!
She said they are trying to be in touch with all applicants by the end of MarchSame here. I keep logging into USConnect but Liz told me the same thing. Did she give you a time table?
For those who were still awaiting an admission decision, have you gotten any word yet?
And for anyone on this forum, has anyone heard anything new/any updates regarding admissions decisions?
Thanks!
@zasunriseHi!
I just received an acceptance 3/14. I first received an email to my regular email account, followed by an email message to check my decision status on USConnect on 3/17, and finally a letter in the mail today 3/19. There is an accepted students reception 3/27, but I don't think that necessarily means all the decisions will be made by then. Hope this was helpful and best of luck!!
I just heard I was also waitlisted. There wasn't much info on what that means though. Do you know how many people are waitlisted or where you are on the list?I contacted Liz and asked about my application status. She replied pretty quickly, and said decisions would be coming out in the next week. Soon after, she emailed me again saying I was placed on the waitlist! Anyone else in the same boat?
USC connect still says no decision has been made for me but I got an email saying I was placed on the waitlist.Does it say you were waitlisted on USC Connect as well?
@Fbomb10Just got waitlisted today, not going to take it though since I've been accepted to other places but good luck to all!
@Idealistic87Yesterday, after hearing on here that some people got their application statuses emailed to them, I emailed Director Carley to get the status of my application. She emailed me back today, and said that they mailed out the last of the decision letters today, so I will hear from them soon. I'm just wondering why some people already heard back via email, yet I have to find out my status via mail?
@Idealistic87
Hopefully I'm wrong about this, but I believe everyone who got waitlisted received an email yesterday. People who were accepted were receiving acceptances as early as February and all throughout early-mid March, and the waitlist people received an email yesterday. So I'm assuming that all there is left to do is send out the rejection letters which is via mail. This is just a guess. Hopefully I'm wrong about this since I am in the same boat as you are. Good luck to us and everyone else!
If you don't mind me asking, which city do you live in?
Wow! I hope you're wrong that we are going to get rejection letters soon. Yes, good luck to all!
I live in Gardena, CA. How about you? Since I live so close to USC, I'm assuming I'll get my (most likely rejection) letter tomorrow.
If you don't mind me asking, do you have a backup plan if you don't get into USC? Have you applied to any other schools? I applied to CSUDH 2 years ago, and was waitlisted and never got off. I also applied to USC last year, but withdrew my application before they made a decision (bad move by the way! ). I have no idea what my backup plan is, as I only applied to USC this cycle.
I live in Carson, CA, which is pretty close to you. One of the reasons I ask was, maybe those who live less than 20 miles from USC get their decisions via mail. So hopefully there is still that glimmer of hope for us.
This is my first time applying. I'm planning on applying to CSUDH this year too if I don't get accepted to USC. I'll keep you updated on my status and if I receive anything from USC. Good luck! I pray that we both get in!
I think you're very insightful! I hope you're right that USC just mails decision letters to applicants who live closeby.
I checked my mail today, and unfortunately, I didn't get anything yet. I'll most likely get the decision letter on Monday. I'll also keep you updated about my status.
Good luck to you too! I'm going to eat lunch at the South Bay Pavilion today (I love Carson!).

Aww, I didn't want to be right. My (most likely rejection) letter should be coming anytime soon today. All I can say is, keep your head up and stay strong. I assume we are all focused on becoming occupational therapists, therefore if becoming an occupational therapist is truly our goal, we shouldn't settle for anything else and keep going at it. I am still deciding what other schools/options I can do in the meantime. If you want, I'll keep you updated on what my backup/alternate plan is which can hopefully be of some help. Good luck!Well deejayy, your prediction was right. I just got a rejection letter from USC. Not sure if I'm going to reapply a second and last time at CSUDH this year. What now?
Sure! Here are my stats:
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but can you apply before you actually receive your bachelor's degree? I am scheduled to graduate next spring semester, so in June. I know USC's program starts in June and the application due dates are in November and February and I want to start right after I graduate. Can you apply before you actually graduate so you can start right away right when the program starts?
Yes you can! I was accepted in March but I'm graduating from UCLA in June. So I'll start the Monday after the Saturday I graduate
Nice, congrats. Is it like any other candidate or are there spacific guidelines that need to be met for people who haven't graduated yet? For example do they tell you that you need a specific GPA when you receive bachelors etc?
Oh wow they don't even specify to keep a certain GPA, that is nice, I guess lol. Sucks you have to go two days after graduating though lol. Final question, did you apply for the early acceptance or the regular? Thanks!
Hey othopeful324,can anyone who was accepted let us know when the deadline to commit to USC is? just trying to get an idea of when people on the wait list can expect to hear back! Thanks

Congratulations!!!Liz said I was on the top 3rd of the waitlist and I just got my acceptance letter yesterday asking me to respond by May 5th
Congrats!! Do you know where you were on the waitlist before they accepted you? I called yesterday and they said I moved up from the top of the middle third to the first third. I am just trying to figure out where in the top third I am now! You have a tough decision to make now!!I got off the waitlist yesterday! Now I'm waiting to make a decision on whether I will attend USC or Towson
Congrats!! Do you know where you started on the waitlist? Just trying to figure out where I might be now!!@Fbomb10 I just got off the waitlist yesterday too! Good luck on the decision-making process, I'm on a similar boat too! In case you were wondering @othopeful324 , I found out through email!
Sorry, I never actually knew my placement on the waitlist! But good luck!Congrats!! Do you know where you started on the waitlist? Just trying to figure out where I might be now!!
