@mkj120 it’s called the transfer student scholarship. Apparently, every transfer applicant gets considered for it.
@kamyarzk thanks! did you apply under a different major when you applied again?
@user98 I was also a repeat applicant. I did apply for different majors though because I was scared of being rejected again. However, one of my major choices the first time was “undeclared” and I had very little major prep for the major I was actually accepted into, so I really have no idea what happened there. I was just happy that they accepted me the second time around. I did make that the focus of my second application essay and it was probably cliché and cheesy as heck, lol. One of my lines went something like “Being from East Los Angeles, I’ve always felt that I don’t belong in a higher education setting and after getting rejected from USC last year, this ideas was further cemented in my mind”.
Anyway, I think they do admire applicants with the courage to try again. USC makes it an unnecessarily long process for some, so anybody that can put up with it again is more than worthy to be a Trojan.
@user98 no problem! and yeah the first time I applied it was for engineering but the second time I applied for Dornsife to increase my chances
Do SGR transfer student need to resend their academic transcript to USC undergraduate admission?

Anyone here that transferred to do BA in Dornsife?
What classes did you take?
What is the approx. turn back time on appeals?

@Wafflepiezz how did you receive your appeal decision?
Financial aid appeal worked! About 20k in grants! Always appeal ur financial aid if u have a valid reason!
@la225m First, email, then package came 2-3 days later
@greenpotatoe how did you go about sending the appeal? I recieved my package to learn that got zero aid 
@kamyarzk you go to the FAST page and under “required documents and forms” you submit ur appeal
How long do I wait before checking on appeal? Any idea when appeal decisions are in by?
Hey guys!
If there’s any psych transfer here, please help me out!
Am I better off taking a statistics or algebra with applications course for a sophomore transfer psychology major? Btw, I haven’t had math in my last two years of high school and I think I NEED to complete the minimum math req! Please no negative or “usc is a very competitive school and you won’t get in” kind of replies…
@missice I got in with taking stats as my only math course. I would recommend statistics if you are a psychology major. You might have to take more stats courses for your major anyway, so it’s good to have that exposure. People at USC always say that math at USC makes them hate math, so if you need to take more math at USC, it’s definitely a good idea to have a stats background.
Just received an email with my acceptance letter. My appeal was successful! My portal hasn’t updated yet but the email said that I’d get a packet in the mail shortly. Also, my counselor said decisions would be released by the end of this month so if anyone hasn’t heard yet, you should within the next few days.
Got accepted for Spring yesterday! Took them longer than usual to respond to a spring grade request but I’m not complaining.
Gosh, I am already nervous about applying for next year Fall 18!! Haha
