<p>I’m a veteran who’s been out of school for 5 years. Having just completed my first semester of college, I plan to apply to USC for next year. </p>

<p>USC Says: “USC does not require a minimum number of transfer units. If you have earned fewer than 30 transferable units, we will base our decision primarily on your high school record and SAT or ACT scores.”</p>

<p>Taking that into consideration, my current college GPA is about a 3.9 but I didn’t do very well in high school. I don’t plan to transfer until I have at least 30 credits though. So I’m wondering if it would hurt me to not include an SAT score. I’ll go take it if I have to, but I’d rather not waste $50 or whatever it is.</p>

<p>If you think you’ll do very well on it, then $50 is worth it for the “insurance”. If you’re currently doing well in school though, and you’ve been out of high school for that long, I don’t think it will reflect badly on you.</p>
