The Waiting Game. The countdown to mailing decisions that are final on and I’m sure all our first-year applicants are wondering… what’s taking so long?! It takes a whole lot of manpower and hours to read 47,000 applications and we want to give every application a review that is fair order to produce the amazing, well-rounded, diverse, and successful Class of 2017. Let me pull right back the curtain a little and show you why it takes us months that are many finish this process…
Since USC makes use of a holistic approach to the admission process, we’re committed to reading and re-reading every piece of the application. You know those short respond to questions you reacted to? We read those. That activity summary you completed? Yup, we read every activity, company, and experience you listed on there. I want to get to know you- your interests, your perspective, and most of all, hear your voice come through when I read an application. This process takes some time thought you are as a student and a person as we try to understand how your academic performance, test scores, writing, involvements, and recommendations come together to paint a fuller picture of who.
The admission office may seem is—but it only runs as smoothly as it does through the use of multiple checks and balances throughout the process like it runs like a well-oiled machine on the outside—and it. We contact students when we are missing a piece of the application form and when we need additional information such as mid-year grades. We check with the departments that are academic USC and consider their views on applicants and tune in to their recommendations. Most of all, we rely on one another to greatly help us see applicants in a various way or recognise something we didn’t initially see. It’s an incredibly collaborative procedure and it takes time.
This is a difficult process for our office, as well at the end of the day. You can find many qualified applicants that we do not have room for each year. It’s never simple making these tough choices, but I find convenience knowing that our applicants need many college that is amazing next year irrespective.
I think I talk on behalf of our office that is entire when say we are pretty excited to finally manage to shout out to your world, here’s the amazing USC Class of 2017! Plus in only a couple short weeks, we—and many of you—will be able to do just that.
Grades, Guidance, and Goliath: Confessions of a Director Dad
The blog post below is from our very own Director of Admission, Kirk Brennan. He shares with us the struggles of being a parent of the prospective scholar along with having a leadership role in advanced schooling. Understandably, juggling these two functions is very delicate. Thank you, Kirk, for sharing your insight into what our moms and dads go through during this time that is stressful!

This coming Monday will mark the eighteenth anniversary for the day my wife (who you may remember) delivered our first kid. This particular year — the one in which that child is applying to college — feels like my first day on the job though i have worked in admission for 22 years. Just what a strange way to look at my job: through the eyes, and from the house of a prospective student.
I had many disillusioning observations this year. I saw that tours of very different schools sound the same, that college marketing materials look alike and even say the extremely exact same things, and what sort of number that is small of companies vendors appear to drive this method for a lot of schools. I saw that a deal that is great of pupil’s impression of my university is not controllable, and We had been especially disheartened whenever my own student, after experiencing proud to receive a mass-mailer from a college, quit reading some of them only days later on, and even felt anger as she sifted through them. At USC and in the admission profession in general, we strive to be helpful, many full days I’m unsure how much we’re helping ( and I also welcome your suggestions at admdir@usc.edu).
Just What strikes me more than anything is the emotional roller coaster of the senior 12 months. We had been saddened to watch mundane events of life magnified to be critical pieces of a puzzle that result in college; a grade on the tiniest test prompts a crisis, or a choice to relax one afternoon is seen as a prospective deal breaker for college admission, consequently career, then life time delight. Then there’s the list; so colleges that are many consider, will she love these schools, did she miss an improved fit, and can she even get in at all? Then completing the applications, especially the anxiety behind responding to the least questions that are important the application (we discussed ‘What’s my counselor’s job title?’). The relief that is temporary of them was soon replaced by confusion on the lack of communication as colleges read. Now the decisions are developing the grand finale of the ride — 1 day she gets in and feels great excitement for her future, another she is refused and seems useless, as if judged harshly by strangers. Learning and growing are difficult, and turns that are many life will be unpredictable, but certainly I cannot be truly the only one ready because of this ride to end.
From the ground I have watched this roller coaster many times, and such trips tend to result in the way that is same; with our children enrolling in a college they love. Yet we riders still scream, even feel terror that is real down the mountain as if the safety bars will not assist; normal reactions, if utterly irrational. We still love rollercoasters (Goliath is my favorite), and I think We shall enjoy this ride. I’ve grown nearer to my daughter, and we have all grown closer as a family. I’ve seen my younger daughter console her older sister. We all cherish the time that continues to be in this phase of our family life, while we avoid the concern of how additional meals we shall share together. You can find many hugs, tears, pats on the rear, and scoops of ice cream to soothe the pain sensation, yet great hope for the long run. Today we look forward to this ride finishing, but we imagine whenever it ends, just like Goliath, I will be excited getting back in line to drive again. I sure hope so, anyway: my youngest is counting about it.
