I am currently a freshman that has just finished his fall semester. I am trying to transfer over to USC, hopefully if all goes well I will be able to start next year in the fall.
My freshman fall semester did not really go so well. I was in Engineering school as a Computer Science major, and I ended up with a 3.39 overall GPA.
For the spring semester I switched over to an Economics major because it seems to best suit my future goals. I am applying to USC to Dornsife as an Economics major as well.
What is my chance at ending up at Dornsife? I had a buddy of mine tell me that because my fall semester GPA is so low, USC would not even look at my spring semester grades because of it. I have a few extra-curricular activities as well as a job experience but I still feel like it is not enough to get into such a top tier college. What are my chances? And how can I improve them?
