<p>You have been admitted to USC, so you are asking about students exactly like yourself. Are you a spoiled child?
More than half (53%) of all USC undergraduates are from outside of California. That is not a “small percentage.”

<p>***Disclaimer - a rant follows not aimed at kaitlin17, who is new here - WELCOME kaitlin17! and all that… but I am really, really tired of this ridiculous question being asked about a university with over 51,000 applications. an 18% admit rate and 60% of undergraduates receiving need-based aid - how are those who ask this question supposing USC chooses the “spoiled children” from that field? Was there a “spoiled child” checkbox on the Common App?</p>
