2019-2020 USC Transfer

@CADREAMIN Thank you! You’re amazing. Thanks again for the advice. Still waiting to hear back.

@woshua Still waiting to hear back. I had an SGR, so nothing yet. Thanks for checking in!

Hello
I’ve been a long time lurker here and I just want to say that I received a SGR on May 6 and was accepted into Marshall for business administration on June 11th.

How long after you get accepted does it take for the package to arrive?

@usctransfer10256 about 2 weeks.

Hey again everyone. I’m not sure if someone has asked this before, but how likely is getting into on-campus housing for spring? I know the chances are very low for fall, but I’m wondering how often people get anything for the spring semester. I plan to submit my application as soon as it opens (although it might take me a bit to actually fill it out) on the 1st.

Also, I’m not sure how useful this info is for anyone but I barely received my acceptance from SCA itself on the 20th (via email) even though I was accepted via portal to the major/school on June 3rd.

@tchang1 Thank you! I keep anxiously checking my mailbox for when the package is going to arrive.

It’s been 24 days since I’ve turned in my spring grades and no decision. The wait is killing me

Is it still possible to get in if there is a slight downward trend in gpa? I am taking exceptionally hard classes this spring quarter and I’ve maintained a consistent 4.0 for the past 2 quarters. However, I’m going to get a B+ in a nonmajor required course this quarter and I am freaking out right now. Oh and I also just found a small error in my supplemental essay. I misspelled “a part” and put “apart”. Is it game over for me? Am I in the endgame?

I know a B+ seems insignificant in the long run but usc transfer always mentions how they take trends in grades into account

@anthofu At this point, no one really knows what your outcome is since we’re just students. I mean we can give you words of encouragements to make you feel better lol, but honestly you just have to wait.

@anthofu You’ll be fine. I got accepted to USC and I received a C grade in my fall 2018 semester. Keep in mind that I was in the honors program though. They don’t just look at your grades.

How competitive is it to get into Viterbi for Computer science?

Very. Hardest to get into in Viterbi.

@persona Congrats! Thanks for letting us know the time and stats! :slight_smile: Wish you the best at USC!

@transferusc88 I cannot believe you are still waiting! I second what @CADREAMIN said and say that I’ve been checking on here occasionally to see if you’ve heard anything. Sending good vibes your way for some good news soon and I hope to see you on campus this coming academic year! :smile:

Wow @persona that is so surprising that you got a decision a day after sending your transcript! Congratulations!

@transferusc88 @anthofu Thank you!!! I think It was a fast decision because I am a TTP er??

@vegastransfer Yeah still waiting over here! It’s been pretty long I won’t lie, but to be quite honest I’ve gotten used to it at this point lol. You’re both so kind to stick around and see my outcome, and thank you so much for the positivity! Hopefully I will see you around campus in the Fall! I’ll be sure to let everyone know my outcome! :slight_smile:
