<p>It makes it easier for USC if applicants submit the Part 1 application in cases like this, but even so it will not be a problem. USC has been going through the admissions cycle for many, many decades and it is not uncommon for materials to arrive before applications are submitted. They will make every effort to match up all items. Ideally applicants should try to be sure their USC ID is on all materials submitted, or include their birthdate if the USC ID is not available. Even lacking any of that they will match up by name and high school.</p>
<p>You order your community college transcript from your community college registrar’s office. You can generally do it online, but if you cannot figure it out call your community college up and they will guide you. Be sure to ask for an official, sealed transcript. Having it sent directly to USC is fine.</p>
