Happy to hear! Mon, 04 Feb 2008 14:57:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39636 I'm waiting for the decision too. I'm tired for waiting..... In 2006, one of my friend received the admission on Feb 14th. In 2007, a blogger received the adimission on Feb 2nd. I hope these will help. Mon, 04 Feb 2008 16:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39644 Thank you Cafetier! I guess we´ll still have to wait for a bit (hopefully not to long..) Let´s keep eachother posted! RS Tue, 05 Feb 2008 00:54:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39663 The email from them says the decision will be sent out beginning in Feb. So i guess we can start to expect for it. by the way, did everyone applying USC send financial support (bank statement) with your application? isn't it a bit unusual for school to ask for it before admission? Tue, 05 Feb 2008 21:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39734 I agree that its is very unusual, but since we had no other choise I did send it.. Hope we soon get some positive news! Tue, 05 Feb 2008 23:11:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39741 Indeed. i called them today to delay my submission of financial document and they are ok with it. i was caught up by the current financial markets' turbulence and couldn't get my funds in the bank in time... anyway, they say we should start to hear the decisions shortly. good luck :) Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:47:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#39780 Good news! Any further indication what is "shortly"? The wait is awfull.. Good luck 4 u 2!

Could anyone advise the best institution from the above for Securities/Banking. Fri, 15 Feb 2008 05:09:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40347 me too ^^ Fri, 15 Feb 2008 05:37:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40348 Hi, rad96 I also would like to hear USC's reputation in Securities/Banking. I have never heard of it. I will additionally apply to BU and QMUL's banking/finance program. I do not apply to Fordham, because of its location, not the program. I hope to see you at USC or BU !!!

Waiting is killing me.. Wanna get in USC. Hi Raspberry, I've just been admitted to, and I wish the same for u. I sent my application in January through LSAC and by mail, received an application confirmation on Jan. 24, and was informed that my application was under review on Feb. 8. My TOEFL Ibt score is 110. I've a two-year work experience in a rather small law firm, but I've made several internships in big ones. Don't worry, and keep confident in your own skills! Fri, 22 Feb 2008 14:14:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40817 Hi All, Today I got the "USC CARD" informing that the Admission Committee is currently reviewing my application. Actually, I got an e-mail informing me about this in January already. I wonder that this is the HANDWRITING CARD and sent from Sweden. It was no date and address of the sender but have the signature of the sender which I can't predict his name. Does anyone have any ideas about this? P.S. This card has USC logo. Do you guys think this a good sign for me. I have not received USC e-mail yet. Fri, 22 Feb 2008 14:25:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40819 I received the same card yesterday (snail mail) and I am already admitted (by e-mail and UPS). Hope the best for you! Fri, 22 Feb 2008 14:26:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40820 I received this card too, a few days after the e-mail. If my memory is good (I don't have it under my eyes right now), it was signed by the Director of the Graduate and International Programs, Misa Shimotsu-Kim. I've been admitted thereafter, so let's say that it is rather a good sign! (although I don't know at all..but it doesn't cost much being optimistic!!) Good luck! Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40823 I sent the application on January 29, and received the notification on admission today. it presses me that USC admission office staff is very friendly and helpful!! Fri, 22 Feb 2008 23:08:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/39534/last#40863 Got into USC Gould yesterday. Still waiting on other schools. Good luck to everyone.
