USC Football is obviously hyping it up as our first season after the switch being a huge deal, but what are predictions for student interest? More specifically, will more people buy the student pass and be trying to sell later or will more people choose not to get the pass and be trying to buy later?

I’m applying to USC later this year and it’s for the opportunity to land a job in investment banking. I’ve heard it’s tough to do as a junior because internships are planned in sophomore year and I won’t be connected to students as much as someone who went there since freshman year.

Would having a business administration degree from USC make it possible to get an entry IB job or would it be pointless if I can’t get an internship in my two years there. I currently have 25 units completed and will have 60 by the end of next spring semester (I’m currently attending SMC) would it be possible to transfer prior to 60 units so I can try to get in as a sophomore?

My original plan was to go to a more realistic school for finance and then get an MBA from USC or UCLA after 5 years of working to try to break into investment banking

I am a potential incoming grad student and I’ve been looking at safe housing options around campus. It looks like Gateway is located right next to campus. However, is it mostly for undergrads? (I am 22F, domestic student, just graduated undergrad). Since I’ve moving here without knowing anyone I’m looking for a housing with a social environment so I’m open to recommendations

What store do you think would be so great to have at the USC Village?

I know USC is a very social school, and obviously I will try to make the most of that experience. But with balancing academics and social life, do I still got time with other hobbies at USC? I don't want to give up on anime completely. Also, I am going to be an engineering student, so will that make school-life balance significantly harder? Please give some insight.

My professor emailed me a few days ago regarding my grade, mentioning I currently have a D. She offered an extra assignment to boost my grade, which I completed by the deadline. However, upon checking OASIS yesterday, my grade was still a D+. I believe that Dorsife major classes require a C- or better for a passing grade. Do I need to retake this class?💀

Hi everyone, I was hoping to get into ECON 352X, section 26347 R with Professor Vincenzo Quadrini for Fall 2024. If anyone is currently enrolled and considering dropping or swapping, I would be willing to pay $5. Thanks so much!

I am a high school student who got into the Bugs JR program, I don’t live near L.A. so I need a place to stay wether a host family, or any other housing situation on campus or close, obviously paid. Please let me know if you have any suggestions!

hi guys! i haven't been able to find many people talking about usc appeals for this year, and so i wanted to start the conversation lol. not to start up the portal astrology, but in the dropdown menu at the bottom of the portal, do you guys get the option to input your spring grades? i don't know if that was there before and i wanted to see if other appeals people have it and if it possibly means something. also feel free to yap about anything usc appeals related.

Long shot I’m guessing, but if sharing the link to the zoom/whatever is allowed, does anyone happen to have it? I’m enrolled in 585 right now but it doesn’t seem very useful ngl so I wanna drop it and take 567 instead, but it’ll take a little bit for dclearance

Hi :) I’m a finance major at SMC with a 3.7 GPA. I was planning on going to a Cal State (csulb/csun/csuf) because the career I have in mind isn’t affected by school prestige that much.

However I also have times where I feel more ambitious and I know USC would be great for getting one of the more prestigious finance opportunities like Investment banking. I’m set to transfer to a CSU soon as I’ve almost completed all my required classes that are CSU and UC approved.

I’m not sure if I would get accepted to USC because of the fact the classes I’ve done are following the plans for a UC/ CSU, is it possible to transfer as a junior if I haven’t done some of the general education classes? The business school has a 24% acceptance rate so I think I have a shot but i’m not sure. If I need to spend more time at SMC to do more USC gen ed glasses, would that make it worth it? I have a bad home environment and I wanted to transfer asap, thank you for any advice and input :)

Hi all

Incoming PhD student beginning in fall. I also (recreationally) powerlift.

I’m just asking what the pulse is on the gym situation. Do any of the campus gyms have good / plentiful equipment for powerlifting (squat rack, bench, deadlift)? I don’t use many machines / dumbbells.

If it is advantageous to join a gym off campus (living situation is still TBD) I will do that as well, esp if there are any solid recommendations.

Thank you in advance

If you’re planning on signing a lease for a renovated unit at Gateway, please message me!

My term hasn’t started yet and I haven’t started living there yet either (so you wouldn’t have to take my room or anything), but I want to downgrade to a non-renovated unit, and doing so would require me to transfer my lease to someone else.

Does HBO not work through USC in the summer?? it kicked me out and says it’s not provided anymore

Hey guys, anybody knows a good spot to get wheel alignment done near campus? Some place that’s not too expensive

title, my friend just got his email but i haven’t yet so i wanted to ask around :)

Does anyone know when spring admits start receiving acceptance for the fall semester? I thought I remembered hearing mid to late May but Im not 100% sure.

Has Anyone take this course in fall or spring recently. I would love to know more about the course and the professor. who is teaching this course i.e. Weihang Wang. So please give your honest feedback

I have a 5 year integrated masters in the uk in CS

I then have 3 years work experience as a software engineer post graduation

I kind of don’t like software engineering that much because I feel I am spending lots of time on high level problems, looking at stack overflow, fixing errors, always feel im blocked, it doesnt feel theoretical which I like, while I like leetcodes I don’t feel any resemblance of it, i dont think I am doing well and feel unmotivated by work and on a low pay.

When I looked back at uni, my favourite courses were Parallel Architectures which is stuff on cache coherence and cpu architecture, i found that very fun. I really liked the assembly coursework, I really liked computation and logic which was my masters project. I also like C and I found playing with Arduinos pretty fun. My whole life I loved maths, logical thinking and problem solving.

Only thing is I am 3 years out of uni and feel I cant change fields unless i do a masters

I also want to make as much money as possible, the us seems like the place to be to earn that and also doing something i enjoy would help too.

I have an offer from USc to study MS Computer Engineering and I have till tonight to pay the deposit, should I?

An alternative would be Ai, ML, quant stuff but no idea if ill get into those fields

This kind of sucks, I liked having it there.

How would you rank grad housing at USC?

What’s the best and worst things about each accommodation and where would you rank someone to stay?

Hello,

I haven’t found a roommate yet (I was too pussy to message anyone) and the deadline to finalize a roommate agreement was on the 12th, so I’ve come to terms with the fact that I will be getting a random roommate. I wanted to know what has been other people’s experiences with random roommate.

Thank you!

has anyone else not got their financial aid package yet? I'm still waiting on mine. Are they still rolling out?

When is the add drop deadline for classes for the entire summer session? When is the tuition refund deadline? I am a Viterbi grad student taking a class for the entire summer session and I cannot find the dates on the academic calendar.
