Your GPA is a bit low. Work on improving your grades as upward trends do help. Try to emphasize your leadership positions.

Here is a link from a similar thread for the 2009 freshman statistics:

From what I've seen, I'd say your chances are borderline. If you are interested in music/band, you may want to call and/or do some specific research regardig USCs Thornton School of Music. Scour USCs website.

Never count yourself out if USC is a university you aspire to attend . Apply, give it your best shot. "Chancing Me" is just a guess ... While USC may be a slight reach; indiviuals do get accepted by "reach" schools every year, and some are surprised to be denied at "safety" & "matches"...
