Hello Future Trojans! I will be attending USC Marshall this fall and would love to be a resource for you throughout the application process. Feel free to reach out via this thread to share your questions and updates with the Marshall applicant community. Fight On!

I submitted my application on 13th Jan and today it is almost 3 weeks since the submission. I havent heard anything from the adcom after that. How long does the adcom take to send out invitations and till what date do they send out invitations?

When I went to the information session, I recall them saying that round 2 invitations start going out 3-4 weeks after the deadline. It might even take longer since they said that round 2 has a lot more applicants.

Yep, this question has been asked a couple of times. Marshall has had some staff turnover, and they're a smaller program, so they might take a little longer!

Hi guys, I am in for Marshall from Round 1 and I have confirmed my attendance by putting down the deposit. As an international student, what should I do now? I have quite a number of issues to tackle, Visa, housing, registration... Will the school send me any information of how to move forward? Or where should I start searching? Hope I can get some help here..

its been 3 weeks i submitted my app and i have heard nada!

having the same problem! submitted my app for round 2 but haven't heard anything yet. Kelley and Tepper reached out a few weeks ago to interview, so I'm confused why USC hasn't reached out... Kelley and Tepper are ranked higher! so worried!

I wouldn't be too worried at this point. Looking at timing for round 1, people on the forum got their interview invitations around November 13th, which is 4 weeks after round 1 deadline of October 15th. Seems like we're still on pace to get notifications next week. Who knows, it might be delayed further because there are typically more applicants in round 2 than round 1.

I applied in R1 on the deadline 10/15 and received my interview invite one full month later on 11/15. It was like I forgot that I was even waiting for an interview invite at all lol and then one morning it popped up in my inbox So don't get too frazzled over it, don't psych yourself out. Just focus on preparing for the interview, and you'll be ready to go!
