How do private universities make their decisions? Is it based on application only or mid-term grades are taken into account?

My son has shining record until Junior yr, but one bad grade in fall semester of senior year is what we think was the reason why USC rejected him. We can’t make up our mind whether to appeal or not. Anyone with such experience here ? Would you take a look at my son’s appeal ?
