USC - My first acceptance letter

I got home today, opened the mail and opened my eyes wide when I saw a package from USC that had the USC emblem and a caption that said "Welcome to the Trojan family." At this point, I'm overwhelmed with relief that all my hard work during high school has paid off and that all those insecurities about the weak points of my applications were unfounded. I'd say there's about a 90% chance that I will enroll in USC, although I'm still waiting for the financial aid documents to get processed and the decisions of the other universities I applied to (primarily MIT / University of Pennsylvania). Although the fact that USC is in-state and relatively close to my current residence will probably lean me towards attending even if I get accepted into the other universities.

In any case, I'd like to get a head start in becoming familiar with any USC teamliquiders. I'm wondering if there's a chance any of you are willing to befriend me on StarCraft or instant messenger.

you should live in a dorm 100% your 1st year. it's much more difficult to make friends if you don't.

Dude I know. Like 20K for scoring well on the PSAT and it's really one of the better college deals out there. The only way one beats that value is with a) athletic full-ride, b) UC Berkeley/LA, c) University of Michigan.

dude believe me, UCLA students hate USC much more than USC hates UCLA. the only time we're vocal about it is during football season.

i've seen people with UCLA gear walk around campus when it's busy and no one even says a thing to them. we mostly just ignore them. but if you ask any USC student who has visited westwood, i guarantee that 99% of them have been heckled or harassed in some manner (me included).

I applied to USC, mainly because of the national merit scholarship, but I got depressed when I got the "We're sorry, we can't offer you any other scholarships" letter. I was annoyed at GT for not telling me that I didn't win, and then I was annoyed at USC for telling me. Can't win i guess.

Still waiting for my admissions result though, congrats on being accepted!
