Dear Freelance,

It sounds like you learned enough about the admission process to have a sense of the weight factors given to audition, grades and SATs. I know that for a "typical" BA admit to USC the GPA needs to be in the 3.5-3.8 range for competitive college prep curriculum and the SATs around 1300 for regular admission (not merit scholarship consideration, which is higher). Do you have a sense of how much the audition influences the admission decision for the BFA program (how much below the averages I cite above are they going for students they really want, based on audition)?

Thanks
