I recently received the scholarship email that said 1200 students were admitted with chance at 4 of the merit scholarships. It said something like I'm sorry but you were not selected for further consideration for these awards. I am definitely above the standards for what USC accepts; however, should I be worried about not getting considered for these awards especially since there's no way I could pay full tuition considering I won't receive any financial aid? Or is this maybe just a cursory overview of the candidates and even with near perfect application you can be passed up for someone else even with a less impressive application? Thank you in advance for your replies!
