Okay I just came back from a USC info session and I am outraged. About a month ago I sat down and wrote down the R1 deadlines for all the schools I wanted to apply to. USC.PM was listed as 12/1/11 at the time I checked. During the info session they said that they had moved it forward to 11/1/11!! I wasn't the only one who was completely shocked. Quite a few other people were surprised to find that a top 20 school would publish a deadline date, only to change it later. If I had not gone tonight I never would have known they changed it. Do I now have to check everyday to make sure they don't bump it up again?
Sorry for the rant, but that completely screws up my schedule. There were a bunch of other things that turned me off to the school. I will still be applying but USC is definitely no longer one of my top choices.
I thought the date change was a little weird. Its no big deal for me as I had already started the application and essays. I think they changed it to align with the UCLA FEMBA deadline.
