      Right? I'm paying out of pocket for community college and working my butt off to save and plan for each semester. I don't feel cheated(becuase I never applied to USC as an applicant or sports recruit), but its the nature of the scandal. Why couldn't you just donate a building and sponsor a poor kid like every other wealthy family that bribes their way into elite schools. Also, considering the fact OJ knew the Caruso guy and that he was on USC board of trustees, I'm sure she could've gained admission without taking a crew kid's spot. Its one thing to cheat the system, but something else entirely to do what they did.

      Sadly the Wealthy have been buying their kids way into college for generations. Usually the schools accepted very large donations, had entire wings built, etc.. the difference is the legality of it. I personally think all ways shouldn't be legal. Perhaps the courts could have the parents involved set up a scholarship trustfund for kids who like you worked hard to get there.

So they should be upset, too. Imagine working your ass off and applying honestly, and getting rejected, and some rich liar gets in. You'd have every right to be pissed.

    • @angelaweston8274
      @angelaweston8274 5 년 전 +3

      @@kattykleo8579 Okay so 2 points - the college admin system is extremely subjective and has little concrete standards. The standards of Ivy Leagues are pretty similar yet people get into Harvard but get rejected from Yale (I've seen it in person), does that mean the person with a perfect GPA, SAT score and the perfect application wasn't good enough for Yale? No it's extremely subjective and based on an admin officer's choice. Schools let people in who don't have the credentials for the school - like bad students getting into Harvard or Duke for a sport (bball), the school has an agenda like sports titles, ticket sales etc. IMO that is extremely unfair academically bc they get a super elite degree without being qualified and actual smart kids lose spots for dumb athletes. Then there is the thing about affirmative action (I can see the point for a fair chance but skin color shouldn't be the basis, it should be for low income in general). People who don't match the rest of the applicants are getting in to reach "quotas" for the reputation of the school rather than their merit. Even "donating a building" dumb kids, they're not there on merit and it's wrong but it's legal. All of those facts combined tell me that there's no real way to prove that you were wrongly rejected/ cheated bc it comes down to a person saying Yes or No.
      On OJ - she was a grad of Marymount High (personal experience with a student, it's as tough/ tougher than college) and her "extra curriculars" = 2m follower youtube channel, acting, modelling, brand deals, etc do hold a lot of weight on their own, so considering those 2 things I think she can definitely be put in another category from normal applicants. Celebs even Malala (meh grades, but nobel prize) got into oxford, James Franco etc etc are given special consideration for their work that normal students don't get. I think what OJ did was awful and unlike donor kids (donations benefit all students), their scam only benefitted her/ the bribed guy. Someone who didn't care about college and literally scammed on the basis of a fake sport doesn't deserve to be there. However considering everything I said above I have no reason to think anyone elses chances were hurt by this because, being subjective and unfair with all the different BS, there's no guarantee that anyone was "cheated" out of a spot. If it were all grades and there was a concrete system there would definitely be a case but college admin is the basically a lottery so there's no way to prove that i or any other applicant have been affected by their choice.
      On top of that, I think people suing are only interested in money and are not genuine in their cause bc then every applicant ever in history would deserve compensation. Why should a handful of randoms get millions when others get nothing and to me, how are they entitled to that reward at all?? on top of that - trying to take money from a school's fund used for student causes like buildings, research funding, school improvement expenses for yourself is totally disgusting to me. I see that behaviour as irrational and morally corrupt and selfish. Also how can you complain that OJ is entitled and undeserving of what she got yet the lawsuit people think they deserve MILLIONS of money they did not earn - is that entitlement too?

    ...You dodged a bullet. It’s the “University of Spoiled Children” with very few exceptions. They charge a lot of tuition money for an education quality you could get at a Cal State for 1/5th the price. You’re really just paying for the name or connections, for whatever that may be worth. Also if you do your research on the main college or the Keck School of Medicine on the USC Health Sciences Campus, you will find USC has a pretty hefty number of scandals, corrupt staff, and questionable spending habits over the past 40 years.

    I love this video. USC has been my dream school since I was 12. I for sure understood that it was competitive to get into, but I applied to the masters program and did my undergrad at a different college. All throughout my college years, I’d do my best to maintain a high GPA, I’d try to get involved in clubs and activities, and I was even on the basketball team for a bit. I’ve worked on Say Yes To The Dress, produced/directed/wrote my first short film, recently completed my first screenplay, had a total of 5 internships, and I have a 3.9 GPA. Yet, I also got rejected a few days ago from USC. It’s not fair that people can pay to get in, and meanwhile, people like you and I who work so hard for years don’t even stand a chance at getting accepted. It definitely sucks

    USC was my dream school I got a 1310 on the SAT and had a 4.456 GPA. Didn't get in. Saw this whole situation and wanted to cry. So many of us worked very, very hard to attend. But, I am so impressed by this young lady's ability to be composed and empathetic in this heinous situation. And sometimes these things can be a blessing, as I'm now slated to attend Loyola Marymount University in the fall, and I'm super excited!

You are right to be proud of your hard work. Your words are wise beyond your years. And USC would have been lucky to have you!

    This video couldn't have explained it better. I'm from Washington DC, and I applied to USC during my senior year 2016-2017 school year. Not getting in not only disappointed me, it made me frustrated on how the rich and elite powerful kids have a leverage over prestigious schools than average Joes like you and me. Nonetheless, I picked myself up after having the feeling of being punched in the stomach ( USC was my dream school as well, I felt like it was my destiny to go there ). While I am happy with my current school, I still wish I could have gone to USC from my freshman year. Once I'm done with undergrad, I will be applying to USC's Keck school of medicine. So there's still hope to fulfill my dream. If not, I will just accept the way things are and make the best of whatever medical school I get into. The passion I have for USC is not like anyone else's. In high school, I would dream and breathe of being in USC. To this day, I wish I was at USC. But I wish I would be there from the beginning, not midway to the end. No point in transferring just to get half the package. Good luck wherever you are at.

That dream school really is the major thing that keeps you going, through all of the late nights. What really hurts me the most is the toll your mental health takes as a result of working so hard. The sleep deprivation, the stress of your next exam, constantly comparing yourself to others, etc. Its really detrimental to your soul. And then poof all that hard work was just taken away from you!! I cannot imagine how your feeling. ;'(

    Girl, I feel you. I was waitlisted from SC( heart was broken), applied again as a transfer student after I went to a state school( which oddly enough because of the people I met there I ended up loving. had great friends), then got in SC. I entered as a sophomore( i'm grateful I got in, but i would have rather started as a normal freshman you know. they had special programs for freshman during welcome week and stuff. its just a bit different for a freshman). But, the fact is with these schools this type of thing happens ALL the time, which is sucky. People "donate" to the school all the time, and you CAN'T tell me that that admissions dont notice the students who apply who come from super wealthy families that donate like $200 K to SC. It's like that at most schools. I had a friend who had a great heart/ she was a moral person/ very christian.... but she was pretty dumb. Like how she graduated I had no idea, but she always mentioned how her parents donated a ton of money every year..... then i was like OHHHHH it makes sense. Another friend was from a middle class white fam, and she got a sports scholarship in running, and she HATED HATED running. All her free time was taken up by running, but she needed the scholarship so she couldn't drop out. In the end I don't believe where you go to school matters. I know people who went to Yale/Harvard/Princeton and they aren't successful yet. People make themselves successful not the school they went to. I hope they change the admission process though( where like the admission counselors won't know whos family donated to schools/ who's applicants are legacies of the school/ who's families are super rich...i feel like certain info should be withheld from the admission process), so that no one has to have their heart broken over college.

    A video like this should be shown to those terrible parents involved in the case. A young, bright-eyed, hard working kid crushed by their actions. Glad you made a video and spoke up.

    People who work their ass off to get into their dream deserve to go. Not the snobby rich people who pays who knows how many thousands of dollars for their kid to go to a really good school when they don’t even do shit in their life and they depend on their parents for everything. Great video Emma, well said❤️

    I adore the youtubers who talk about the college - Olivia jade scandal. They really paint the picture more clearly than some new outlets. Explaining that she went to a really competitive, hard academic school that seems nearly impossible to do all the work she did, showing how others who worked hard to try to get in the schools but didn’t, and showing how she didn’t really care to go to college, you can see what really happened and the motives behind it. Keep doing what you’re doing guys. Thanks for keeping it real

      Well, in some industries, where you went to school is very important when you begin looking for a job. A school like USC does carry some cache and provides great networking opportunities. That said, my husband went to Beer Keg U, graduated, went out into the world with an incredible work ethic and determination and is now a multi millionaire, in addition to being an all round good person. So you are correct, people who are smart and ambitious will generally succeed no matter where they end up for college. But there is no denying that a degree from Harvard or the like is going to get your foot in the door quicker than the average Joe, even if all other things are equal.

      Lol that’s literally propaganda put out by this over priced schools. The only thing that’ll help you get a job is work experience. This girl in this video is a the exact kind of fool these schools pray on. Honestly Olivia just wanting to go party is more subversive than anything this heifer will ever do...

    • @susanb4213
      @susanb4213 5 년 전 +2

      @@nicole601 Yeah, not really. There is a saying "it's not what you know but WHO you know." Schools that have a tight networking culture can and DO get jobs for young graduates who have never worked a day in their lives. Schools that are seen as very prestigious do in fact carry some great perks, and getting a job is one of them. Why do you think people sell their souls to get into these schools? That's the real world. Does that mean graduating from Tailgate U means you can't succeed? Not at all! But that grad may have to work a bit harder to get the same result.

    I’m so sorry that happened to you. I know how it feels. The same thing happened with my son and NYU. He had top grades, incredible test scores, enough AP credits to skip his first year. All he ever dreamed of was going to NYU. During the school visit we met with one of the admissions staff. They basically told him unless he had a famous last name, he didn’t have much chance. He still tried but didn’t get in. He was devastated.
