USC likes high GPA and SAT but they also look at the whole person. Many admitted students don’t have the stats you see on CC. They love to be loved and a good interview might help too, as well as essays that emphasize those qualities that distinguish you from others and that show why you would be a good fit for the school. If you really want to go I wouldn’t listen to folks that say don’t bother to apply. Work hard to bring your test scores and GPA up and by all means apply. Just realize in terms of your stats it’s a reach for you, so research and apply to other schools that you think you’d be happy at that are matches or safties. If you don’t get in you can always go the transfers route or maybe you will find another school you like even more.
