@clan123 @transfer9692 I am also Marshall non-TTP! I think last year, non-TTP Marshall applicants started hearing back around late April, with the majority being in May. The wait seems so long! 
@clan123 @transfer9692 @colelgerose Marshall non-TTP squad. I think we’re going to hear back earlier than previous years tbh… People are beginning to hear back now.
@aznboi4981 YEAH I’d be so happy if they notify us earlier than last year lol
I hope they didn’t review my application yet lol. I submitted an addendum yesterday explaining something very important. Otherwise, I have a snowball’s chance in hell for admission. :))
@aznboi4981 @clan123 @collegerose Yay! I hope so, I honestly don’t know what’s taking so long. USC has a pretty early transfer deadline compared to other universities!
@collegerose Heyyy you’re also on the Cornell thread 
@Sbp325 You have the same chances. USC is private, they do not give any edge to a CC like the UC system does. They aren’t looking at any one more sympathetically than another. They accept plenty of four year transfers as well. I am sure more apply from CCs, but when you look at who they admit - 50% come from California CC, the rest come from other universities around the country with 10% being from UC/CSUs. I think that is a big number considering how few likely apply from UCs compared with CCs. Students from 4 years with high gpa’s have shown they can handle the rigor so they can be an easier admit for them. You have to just take the right classes, get a killer gpa. It is true that good grades would be easier to come by at a CC. ECs mean virtually nothing, they only count in freshman admissions. Go to your 4 year and apply by Feb 1st if you still feel you want to. But don’t give up the freshman experience if you have been planning on that, changing over to a CC would be dramatically changing your course if you have been set on going to a 4 year. But if going to a CC fits your life and plans for the next 12 months, that is an option too.
I am an international applicant @transfer9692
@transfer9692 YES! I remember you! we both didn’t have our high school transcripts updated on the portal HAHA :))
@transfer9692 @colelgerose @aznboi4981 I hope so! I applied to 6 schools I already heard back from 3 (they all accept me) I am waiting for Emory which releases decision in late April and then GW and USC
@SmartJarhead I believe we’re going to dorm together on campus. I also know housing fills up rather quickly, so I hope I am able to obtain a decent dorm/apartment.
What about yourself?
I’m a Marshall applicant too!! Anxious to hear!
Does anyone know how many sophomore applicants get into Marshall?
I don’t believe any transfers here have as unique of a situation as I do…
I did awful in high school, and I graduated almost 14 years ago. I went to a crappy state school on the east-coast immediately after and did even worse. Over the course of two years, I earned mostly W’s and F’s, earning a GPA just barely over a 1.0.
I was in the military for six years afterwards and grew up immensely. I’ve spent the last two years at community college and I’ve earned a 3.8 GPA.
I applied to Marshall as a Business major. To all the people worrying out there, just be thankful you didn’t make the awful decision I did around your age.
So I’ll be the real test of whether USC is holistic. Honestly I’m just thankful for the community college system, because without it, I wouldn’t have anywhere to go. Good luck everyone.
@SabPardo I hope to live on campus. I heard it’s hard to get though so we’ll see.
@clan123 @transfer9692 @colelgerose @anna717 I applied to Marshall too but as pre-accounting. Are you all Business Admin. majors or is anyone here pre-accounting?
@BBBBB3 hi there! Such a similar situation…wishing for the best and trusting in a truly holistic process!!! Fingers crossed for the both of us.
Is anyone else applying under Price? I’ve only seen one other Price applicant, which honestly makes me feel good considering how competitive it looks like Marshall is.
Hi, I’m also applying pre-accounting! Where are you applying from if you don’t mind me asking?
@Capital_Dan same here!
Hey fellow, non-TTP Marshall applicant on East coast as well! So exciting haha!!!
