maybe/hopefully by fridayYou can have more than 1 acceptance after the April 30th date if you want to wait on FA info. It is just a strong recommendation that you narrow it down to 1 school by 4/30. Just be aware of Keck's CTE deadline which is the most important.so no one has received FA or scholarship offers? was really hoping for something before PTE deadline

do you know someone who has received one?
rip :/ ok thank u
In previous years they varied (full tuition, half tuition etc). Not sure what they're doing this year but I also only received a 1/4 tuition scholarship /: Withdrawing my A. Good luck everyone!
+1. Loved Keck but withdrawing due to cost.
I got an email from the admissions office.
amazing thank u
They sent it out to admitted students a couple of weeks ago
would anyone like to share how the match list looks 👀 did a lot of ppl match into good programs and competitive specialties?
Also wondering if anyone woulndn't mind sharing a match list....
I was thinking of doing a whole letter but maybe I’m misinformed...
oh jeez now im not sure...prior years' threads said 1-2 sentences, but things could be different this year.
Oh wow ok I didn’t know that! I’ll have to shorten mine then. I’m planning on sending tomorrow too
Congrats! And you have to email them at [email protected] to tell them you are withdrawing.
Thank you! They'll be getting lots of emails today it looks like 😂
Good luck to you too! Did you send an LOI? If so, was it long or brief? I was thinking of sending a brief one bc I think that's what Dean Arias would want.hey y'all! late to the game but I just wanted to add a data point: I interviewed in early Dec & got put on the alt list in mid Jan. good luck to everyone hoping to get off the alt list! i have my fingers crossed for all of you & myself
I didn't because I unfortunately don't hold any acceptances
From what I understand from the few paragraphs in the alt list tab on the portal it should only be a few sentences basically saying "hey, i really want to go here & if i get off the alt list i will 100% drop my other acceptance(s) and enroll here"
I think you can send a LOI regardless of your status at any other school! The email I got for alternate list says "You may submit a brief Letter of Intent (LOI) via email on or after April 30, 2021. We hope to hear from you then." The comment in the portal I took to mean because people need to have a plan to enroll choice today if they have acceptances, so they could send an LOI to USC while having PTE status at another school. So I'd go for it if I were you and you want to go there!I didn't because I unfortunately don't hold any acceptances
I definitey do want to go here! I'm just hesitant to send one because on the portal it says only to send one if you are currently holding other acceptances & i vaguely recall Dr. Arias saying during interview day that if you don't have other acceptances not to send an LOI bc they assume youll go there if you get off the alt list
I remember her saying this also but what do you guys think about sending a LOI anyway? Currently I am on a few waitlists however I'm not sure how else to express my interest/be seen if I'm on the alternate list but don't have other acceptances?
Yep I did! Doesn’t seem to be an indicator of anything tho :/
Yes, and it's strange that they sent it because it seems that as waitlisted applicants, we are not yet able to create a FAST account to fill out the supplemental form. At least, I wasn't able to.
You don't have to in order to be considered. It just kind of allows them to know who will 100% commit, and I guess that makes the candidate more desirable... But I do know of individuals from like 2 years ago getting in off WL without LOIs
