<p>three weeks or less, guys!</p>
<p>i only know of one non-engineer that’s heard back so far… so has anyone here heard yet?</p>
<p>While I wait, all the good off campus housing is going… I would love ot live at a friends place but he cant hold up the room through July since I might not even get in.</p>
<p>Did everyone here submit letters of reccomendation? Anyone get accepted without LoR?</p>
<p>Can you do any of the pre-reqs at community colleges? i want to take some community college classes this summer and i want to figure out what classes will actually transfer over to USC. how do you figure that out? I’ve looked at their classes online, but I’m not sure which ones will transfer from a UC or a community college…</p>
<p>JTloverYorS?,yes you can do the pre reqs at community colleges, go to <a href=“http://www.usc.edu%5B/url%5D”>www.usc.edu</a>, and type in articulation in the search bar, look for california community college articulation agreedment and then your choose your cc and see what courses transfer to usc. I don’t know about ucs though so yeah.</p>
<p>
i want to know also. do think its too late in the game to still send one? because my prof had written a pretty good one for me to other schools.</p>
<p>chocolategabanna: </p>
<p>Thank you so much. Your information was really helpful. They have this information on other college websites, don’t they? Because I want to take summer courses at my local community college that’ll satisfy requirements at a lot of different schools…</p>
<p>Regarding letters of recommendation: When I went to the USC Transfer Session back in March, I had asked about letters of recommendation. She said for transfer students, it doesn’t really matter, nor for that matter did EC’s. She said the main factor was GPA. Although I would guess that letters of recommendations certainly can’t hurt.</p>
<p>JTloverYorS?, yes and no, college websites have articulations for other schools but depending where you want to transfer. for example if you are going to transfer from a California Community College to USC or a UC, or any school in California then they would most likely have the information at the community college you are attending or on the college’s website like I showed you before on wheter your classes transfer or not. But if you are transferring out of state to a different university, then you would need to contact that university and figure out what classes are transferable because most likely an out of state university isn’t going to have listed on their website what California Community college courses transferable or not to their university.</p>

<p>thought id let you guys know i got in about a week ago (viterbi applicant). do rescinded admissions offers work the same way they do for freshman decisions, or is it more stringent? i got in with a 3.38 gpa from a pretty good school, i just finished with a 2.9 (B,B,B,C,A-half credit). think im okay? anyway good luck to everyone</p>
<p>congrats ccman. can i ask what pretty good school your you got accepted from?</p>
<p>if you got in with a 3.38gpa, i will feel a whole lot better about myself. </p>
<p>:]</p>
<p>duke, however i think the fact that i was admitted to usc as a freshman (they still had a lot of my stuff still on file) expedited the process a little. so what do you think about the 2.9?</p>
<p>i would think the 2.9 would be fine - especially coming from duke. were you in pratt there?</p>
<p>Congrats ccman2, but what I’ve read on earlier posts about engineering transfers is that they are allowed to be accepted with lower gpas because their majors are so difficult.</p>
<p>CongratS!</p>
<p>Why is engineering students get their notices so much earlier then the other majors?</p>
<p>ccman2, why did you leave duke for USC?</p>
<p>i think the viterbi supplemental app helps the engineering department pick out the students that are good candidates to send over to main admissions to get approved. that might have been a little wordy.</p>
<p>EDIT note: rant begins here
why did i leave duke? a lot of disappointments, literally from the beginning. the “town gown” relationship is so terrible, yet no one seems to care. my engineering department i think had 20 ppl per graduating class, ie same 20 people in all of my classes for the next two years. not my cup of tea. there was too much duke hate going around within duke (see: duke lax case as just one example, specifically the group of 88). bball fans that dont know **** about bball (the majority, at least). mind numbingly boring social scene, same stuff weekend to weekend. i was uninspired there, and it was just draining my motivation/desire to learn. i know it sounds like im making it out to be so terrible, but it wasn’t, it was just that all the negatives built up against the few positives. i was more scared of graduating with regrets than i was of packing up and going somewhere else, and to be honest, i was beginning to understand why there is so much duke hate out there (and in there). for me, having a diploma from duke would make me feel like i was living off the name for the rest of my life. sorry if there are duke fans who read this, it wasnt for me. also, originally i was between usc and duke, and had committed to usc, but my parents convinced me that duke was more “prestigious” and would be a more valuable diploma. i got suckered into that one, but they’re okay with me transferring so im not complaining</p>
<p>thats cool… trojans > duke in bball next year :)</p>
<p>off topic… does anyone else think that duke has the coolest name for a college? it just sounds soooo awesome…</p>
<p>oh and all you who got into usc econ but want to do business… don’t worry you can get in as an intercampus transfer. all you need is a 3.0 ( i spoke to a counselor ). You will have to take two GE’s at usc (category 4 and category 6) and some econ classes transfer directly to marshall classes. After a semester you can apply to marshall, if you have > 3.0 then you’re in.</p>
