This was the email I got from USC a couple of weeks ago:

Greetings from the USC/PRMH Graduate Program in Nurse Anesthesia!

We are acknowledging receipt of your application. For the next several weeks we will be processing the information you submitted. If we are missing needed information, we will be in touch with you. I would like to inform you that there are two parts to the application process. The Program will evaluate applications, and select applicants to interview. After interviews the Admissions Committee will make recommendations to the Graduate School for acceptance. The Program has to assemble the information it needs to make a recommendation. That information comes from the documents submitted on the University application portal. As you can imagine, it takes quite a lot of work for that information to make its way to the Program level. We are asking for your help to facilitate processing your application. We are readily able to look at the application, CV/resume, Letters of Recommendation, and personal statements uploaded on the application portal. Many times the GRE Score is posted. Transcripts are another matter altogether. Please help us expedite your application by considering the following:

1. Transcripts – in this first phase of the application process, official transcripts are not necessary. If you have requested official transcripts be sent to the Graduate School at USC, great. It will be helpful if you can get unofficial transcripts to us via email (scanned and sent to [email protected]. Faxed copies of transcripts are usually not legible and are therefore discouraged. You can also mail the transcripts to us at 15 Medical Park, Suite 221, Columbia, SC 29203. We prefer the electronic method of submission. If we offer you a position in the Program, then official copies of transcripts will have to be on file at the Graduate School for them to offer official acceptance into the University.

2. GRE Scores – Unofficial results can be submitted to us. Again, if you get recommended for acceptance, the Graduate School will need official results submitted (School code 5818). If you are taking the GRE at the 11th hour, we need to know as soon as you get a score so we can consider the results.

We will communicate with you one way or the other regarding your status as an applicant. If you have not heard from us by May 15, please email us for a status update. Best wishes as you compete for a position in our Program.

Regards,

Winston T. King, CRNA MHS

Program Director and Assistant Professor

I think that they are still in the process of sending out and filling spots for interviews. I know of a couple of individuals that I work with that have gotten emails to interview at the end of May. I have not rec'd an email :( I am not sure that I will even get an interview this year. My GRE score was not good at all, but everything else was. So, I will just have to wait and see. Good luck to everyone! And congratulations to those you have already gotten an email for an interview!
