2020-2021 USC Transfer

@zettasyntax ah I see. Thanks!

So how should new transfer students approach housing? Any recommendations on what to do? Kind of nervous about housing. @CADREAMIN and @ anyone else who has some experience with this lol

Should there be another wave of results tomorrow? I’m applying for Viterbi and the anxiety’s starting to kick in a little.

I JUST GOT IN for fall 2020!!! for Dornsife i did not get a SGR

Has anyone got in for Cognitive Science? I haven’t seen any admits yet.

@“UCLA22CogSci/LINGCS” ive been following the thread fairly often today, and i havent noticed any

is there a groupie for accepted students or is anyone thinking of making one?

I got accepted to Bussiness Admin, which is my first choice major. My GPA went up to 3.76 after I got my spring grades.

I noticed the same thing… I thought I was extremely competitive! Hoping for more waves to get me in. My admissions officer reached out to me directly on several occasions asking for things that I would think means minimally they were really considering me.

Anyone’s financial aid checklist disappear before they got their decisions?

What type of stuff did they ask for??

I made a Snapchat group for accepted transfers, for anybody that was just accepted :smile: Just send me a PM with your SC handle if you want to be added.

@snorost did you apply from a Cal CC or 4-year?

Spring schedule, WGR request, Really liked my letter of rec(Prof had an issue submitting so she sent it directly to my admissions officer). I asked if I had completed certain classes(which I had). the one thing that’s scary is I started college at 16 and took classes when I was 14 during high school that I did not do well in, UCLA had issues distinguishing the difference even after I explained it, hoping it isn’t the case with USC. Like in the last 1.5 years I have a 3.85 GPA but I got bad grades taking classes concurrently during highschool, (took 11 units over the summer like an idiot when I was 14), My first full-time semester I did not do well do to my dad who was the breadwinner suffering major health issues, (I was working 50+ hours a week at 16 while going to college full time). Since then I have adjusted to balance. My ECs are amazing and have a direct correlation to my major as well.

congrats to all those that got in!

do you know if people with human biology majors got accepted yet?

I went to a CC here, no TTP (I didn’t even know that existed lol). Just a regular applicant. I was very surprised when I got my admission. I still don’t know how I got in tbh.

@“UCLA22CogSci/LINGCS” Cog Sci is a small department, there is a chance their acceptances, and other majors in Dornsife, are still to come. Dornsife has over 140 majors! They were certainly not all released today. You have an interesting backstory, hang in there and good luck!

@“UCLA22CogSci/LINGCS” that does sound nice. Did the post your letters of recc to your portal? I had three people send one and I sent an unsoliciated Spring Grades to the email that accepts transcripts (not my counselers) but none show up in my portal. Is this normal?

@ste1111 Enjoy the blue side! Congrats and good luck!

@BBoy99 For some reason college confidential will not let me PM other users without a certain number of posts. Can you PM me first, since I’d love to join the Snap group : )

Accepted- Fall admit! Got an email around 5:26! Junior transfer from California CC to Dornsife-biochem! No SGR or WGR
