kearbear,

Glad to see your interest in USC! I had a 32 ACT, 1350/2060 SAT, and a 5.0 weighted GPA. This gained me admission into the Honor’s College, and I received a merit scholarship as well. I am OOS.

Don’t worry about the logistics of the GPA – your school sends in a “school report” that explains how the weighted system works at your school. A 5.0 at my school could be equivalent to a 4.5 at your school. They will notice!

Keep up the grades, keep doing leadership/activities that interest you, and KICK ASS on the Honors College application.
