Deferring Graduate Admission

We DO NOT defer admission.  Applicants who have been admitted have the option of updating their application to be reconsidered for the next admission cycle.  This is a one time option.  There is no guarantee of admission, however most decisions are upheld.  Instructions for updating:

1. Applicant should click on the statement of intent link in their decision letter on the you.usc.edu portal

2. Select the update option

3. Submit the form

In December, Annenberg Admissions will contact the applicant to confirm their interest in being reconsidered for admission.
