Official USC 2015 Transfer Thread

@SCAstrojan OASIS only doesn’t mean anything in the context of being able to login. Some people last year couldn’t login but still got accepted. That said I think it is a good sign if your STARS report fills out, but if anyone doesn’t have their STARS or can’t login to OASIS, it doesn’t mean you won’t be admitted AFAIK.

Basically, there are no “bad” indicators, only good.

@HappyLifeMachine Yeah that’s how I’ve been taking it, thanks.

I can see my star audit and it says no requirements for degree program stars terminated. and 0.0 units does that mean I’m screwed.

@batmandarkone no you’re fine. I probably shouldn’t have brought up OASIS. OASIS can only bring good news no badnews.

Hey guys, I got SGRed for USC Price on 4/28. I managed a 4.0 this semester leaving me at about a 3.8. However, 4 of my units this semester I did CR/NC - do you think that matters? Counting the CR/NC class I have 33 units and without I’m at 29.

i bet everyone is getting really good at arithmetic from logging into youSC

@marinersfan13 They probably got it/will get it and haven’t updated it yet. If you’re still concerned you could scan and email a copy

hahah thanks dude! I had a 2.8 freshmen year but I got it up to a 3.2. But I messed up on my science/computer classes even thought I want to be a quan. econ major now. So I feel like that is killing me…

@marinersfan13 The exact same thing happened to me, let me know what you end up doing? Im considering resending my transcript as well.

@jucery13 I emailed my counselor today and I’ll let you know what she says! I have a feeling that they got the transcript but haven’t had the time to update the portal because they were in a conference this week but it’s better to be safe than sorry

@marinersfan13 What’s your major? When did you get a SGR, when did you send it ? and what was your GPA this semester. Lol it almost sounds like I’m conducting an interview or something, but I’m super paranoid, since I got 1 B this semester, my GPA was 3.76 this semester last semester I got a 4.0, i hope they don’t see it as a downwards grade trend, However my cumulative gap went from 3.71 to 3.73

@lordfx lol, part of me worries that if I get it wrong they’ll dock my admission. Haha

Received packet today in the mail from Viterbi! Accepted for Mechanical Engineering.

@UCorUSC92 Congrats ! ! Are you sophomore or Junior transfer applicant?

Did anyone here apply for Thornton programs??

@UCorUSC92 Congrats! Are you in SoCal too? I wasn’t aware that mail gets sent on Saturdays but I see a few people got their admission packet.

@HappyLifeMachine @wgmasjb123 Thanks! Yeah I live in LA. I posted my stats on the other thread…

@UCorUSC92 I’m a CS applicant in the Bay Area so I hope hope hope a big envelope has started making its way and I’ll know on Tuesday after the long weekend! Nice stats and congrats again!!

if your major is relatively uncommon, do you think an acceptance is easier to obtain? ex. I applied as a global studies major and i do not see or know of many global studies major

@jucery13 I’m a business major, got my SGR on May 5th and sent my transcript on May 14th. My GPA this semester was a 3.77 and I got a 3.70 the semester before so I have a 3.73 cumulative GPA. I’m sure they won’t mind the downward grade trend too much as long as you get around their 3.70 average GPA for transfers. But with holistic admissions you really never know. Good luck to you!
