<p>OP,and Sargus, be SURE you complete your USC application BEFORE the Dec 1 cut off. Otherwise you WONT be eligible to be considered for their Full tuition scholarships. I’d say you have a good chance of winning one. And USC should be a match-safety for you, but since they now accept the Common App , who knows how many more applications they’ll receive this year over last? U Chicago went up by 40% their first year.
Be sure to nail you essays, and be prepared to interview [ required] for a scholarship in Feb 2012</p>
