To get into USC do I need to provide a headshot?

<p>It’s like L.A. and stuff, so this is a valid question, right?
Also, if I plan on using my totally pro fake I.D. to get into Cinespace and get an embarrassing photo of yours truly posted on thecobrasnake, should I drive my Prius there or ride my fixed gear bike? Like, what would be the best method of transportation to get me, my pretentious attitude, my vegan lifestyle, and my negative judgementalism safely to and from the party?
I’m really very curious. I want to go to USC because I want to be a famous actress and marry a famous director and squeeze as much life as I possibly can out of the “awkward hipster” trend. I even plan on switching from Camel Turkish Royal cigarettes to American Spirit Blue! Now that alternative; that’s commitment.
Someday I will be the ethnic half of a multiracial couple living in L.A., shopping at Ikea, and acting like an elitist whenever I grace my friends back home with my presence.</p>

<p>But really though, headshots; yes or no?</p>

<p>Is this really what your Friday nights comprise of? Get a life…</p>

3

<p>Yes, headshots are a good idea. Also include bust size if applicable.</p>

4

<p>^^agree with sfgiants. But to really get a jumpstart on the competition, you might want to adopt a few international orphans. Just sayin’.</p>

5

<p>for your supplemental application, you may want to send them your sex tape.</p>

6

<p>Might consider a name change… Paris is taken, but I think Madrid is available. Or The Hague?</p>

<p>“Is this really what your Friday nights comprise of? Get a life…”</p>

<p>uh oh, looks like someone forgot their sense of humor at the cosmic bowling alley!
(and fyi, my friday night was very fun, thank you very much, i posted this from my iphone, so HAH)</p>

<p>but anyway okay okay, I’ll get my headshots done, change my name to Auckland Tillington, adopt some babies form Nairobi, and tell Ray J to bring his videocamera next time he comes over.</p>

<p>Then again, knowing Ray J, he’s probably already taped us!</p>

<p>And to go the extra mile, I’ll just send in one of my bras so the casting director can see my cup size for real. and i’ll tell him that i designed it myself, because i’m an up and coming fashion designer you know… its totally between FIDM and a USC communications degree. I wanna resurrect TRL, and then host it.</p>

<p>sorry that you got rejected :frowning: :P</p>

9

<p>sorry that you got rejected :P</p>

<p>i haven’t applied yet silly! i need to complete my conversion to kabbalah before i send in part one, it’s in the fine print.</p>

<p>Torinoway: You know the problem with the internet? You leave, what we used to call, a paper trail. I followed just yours for just a few posts. You posts about being a urm and how that will help/hinder you in admissions, the questions about going to an ivy…and oh…how much you really want to go to SC are there for the viewing. So, if you want to go to SC, ask questions in a mature way. If you want to major in creative writing or screen writing get your experience elsewhere. If you want information and direction try asking your question(s) in a legitimate way.</p>

<p>It was over her head, mackdacre…</p>

12

<p>For my D, just took a digital photo, printed it & added it to her ap. For S, just printed a random photo of him & used it on his ap. Both were accepted.</p>

13

<p>If this is a serious question… Sign up for an interview - they will see you in person, so no photo will be needed. You can sign up for on-campus interviews now, and off-campus interviews starting September 1st. Do it soon, because the interview spots fill up fast. <a href=“http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/apply/adm_interview.html[/url]”>http://www.usc.edu/admission/undergraduate/apply/adm_interview.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>First of all, don’t talk down to me- you haven’t the right. You’re not my mom, and I know this because my mom would’ve spent three hours trying to type four sentences.</p>

<p>Anyway, it was 2:04 AM and i was bored.</p>

<p>So sorry for making a decent attempt at being funny…</p>

<p>I really do want to go to this school though, and believe me, I’ve got that “sign up for an interview” date set as a reminder in my phone.</p>

<p>I also know you don’t really need a headshot…I’m not dumb.</p>

<p>If I was, I wouldn’t think I even had a shot at getting accepted here.</p>

<p>But in my defense, nobody here is getting hurt, and if comedy is really that bothersome, I advise you to block channel 60 if you’ve got Comcast and bring your rain clouds elsewhere, thanks.</p>

<p>I’m going to let this board die. Maybe I’ll come back this time next year though, and say “in your face” as I’ll be on my way to getting a degree from Annenberg.</p>

15

<p>No need to get huffy or defensive. Some posters ran with it and thought it was funny…others didn’t. You can’t please all the people all the time, so “no worries”. Just remember … comedy is like politics or religion…it can be polarizing with folks having wildly different opinions.</p>

<p>Good luck on your college applications…</p>

<p>

Disagree. I’ve read ellebud’s posts and yours, and I’d say she has every right.

Okay… if insulting USC students - on their own board - with every stereotype you can think of is the best you can do…

I’ll take your word for it, but now you have also insulted those who sincerely tried to answer your question…

You won’t have time - you’ll be too busy trying to convince people you don’t fit their USC stereotypes.</p>

<p>What is great about USC - and the USC college confidential forum - is that if you come back here tomorrow with a real question or problem, everyone here will do their best to help you out and won’t hold the stereotype tirade or “in your face” comment against you. Good luck with your applications.</p>

17

<p>Nope, I’ll probably hold it against her. It drives me up a tree when hs kids come on and act bratty toward nice adults like ellebud who are taking the time to try to help them. I know it’s just the internet, but still…maybe if it was all a little cuter or a little funnier…</p>

<p>nestor and tocollege: Thank you for your kind comments. I think that we posters are all rather classy, restrained and yes, a good sense of humor.</p>

<p>I don’t know if you caught one part of the OP rant: something to the effect that she knew that I wasn’t her mother because it would take her mother 3 hours to write four sentences. Enough said?</p>

19

<p>Good job, team (esp. ellebud).</p>

<p>(I hesitated bumping this thread but I just had to say that.)</p>

<p>Really! Who would say that about her mother?</p>
