Ask me about USC Theatre!

For the normal SOT shows I think there is no difference between transfers and non-transfer students. I’m 99.9% sure it’s not even taken into account.

It might be a bit harder for the student productions because people do tend to want their friends in their shows or to already have people in mind but it is by no means impossible. For that I would just suggest getting to know people which is really easy. Acting and the other “hands on” classes are really small (18-20 people) and just talking to people in the bigger theater classes is a great way to meet other theatre students. Also getting involved behind the scenes in the clubs and independent productions will help you out.

The theatre students also tends to throw their fair share of parties to promote/support the student productions and those can easily be found on Facebook. They are, of course, open to everyone. They are usually $5 because they are fundraisers but they tend to be fun or, at the very lease, something to do on a Fri/Sat night.

Put yourself out there and you will be fine.
