I’m curious too.
In the past the Viterbi acceptance rate has been normally 1-2% lower than the overall USC acceptance rate. For example, last year Viterbi was “less than 8%” while USC at 10%:
The 400+ number seems more like the expected enrollment number. For example in the Class of 2027 First-year Student Profile:
Total Fall enrollment 3,633 * 13% Viterbi ~=472. It’s hard for me to imagine they admit ~400 people and expect to yield also ~400…
