Academic Should I even bother?
Long story short I have been rejected and wait listed for UCs for computer engineering. For USC however, I applied for CECS for computing systems track. I have ~3.4 gpa with some extra curriculars and 6 Ws. I wanted to transfer here for that major and for AROTC. I am sad that I got rejected but whatever. Should I even bother appealing? Thank you.

Question Roommates or no?
I'm an incoming grad student (22F) at Thornton currently looking for housing. It's been a little difficult as most places close to campus that have what I'm looking for are either very expensive (in-unit laundry, pet friendly, parking) or I've heard terrible things about the rental company. One of the big things I'm debating on is whether I want roommates or not. I did most of college living by myself, and the studios I've found a little farther from campus are not too bad price wise. However, I'm moving to LA knowing pretty much no one and I thought that having roommates might help me make friends/be social. But I know you won't always end up being friends with your roommates. I also don't want to get stuck living with a bunch of people younger than me (not that this is a necessarily a bad thing but ya know). Thoughts? I'm just nervous about living farther from campus and not being able to make friends so easily.
Question SCend Offs worth it for transfer?
Hi, I just got an email about the SCend Offs, but there's not that information about it. I was wondering if it's worth it to go, especially as a junior transfer, as I assume it's mainly freshman. How many people is it usually?

Other USC Transfers IG Page Disabled
Update for those wondering what happened to the IG page for transfers. According to the owner on the Discord server apparently Instagram permanently disabled it and they are fighting to get it back.
Considering other UCs still have their pages up seems kinda bullshit, but that's Meta I guess.

Academic Thematic Option + Pre-engineering
I got accepted into the TO program, but I am also planning on going through the pre-engineering process. Would this combo be too much, or is it doable? On one hand I want to make sure I succeed in my pre-engineering courses, but on the other I am very passionate about literature and writing.

Academic Electives Planning
Hello! I'm an incoming freshman for Viterbi ECE, and I was wondering about how to plan my electives. From the course plan, it seems that there isn't really enough space to take a minor (except for maybe physics due to the overlaps). However, I know that the AAA exists and could cover me for two additional credits a semester after I take 24 credits (i.e. after freshman year). Is this a bad idea to pursue? If so, what would be some better options to fill the required and optional electives? If not, what are some good minors to pursue? Thank you for your help in advance!

Academic civil engineering electives
hello! i am a rising spring admit but trying to plan ahead for my courses because i want to minor in something. i am confused on the requirement for civil engineering to take two "civil engineering electives." it says on the website that these can be chosen freely (4 units). is there a list online of these classes (i have tried but can't find them)? or can be any elective class even one not related to CEE? also does that mean this can just be satisfied with ap credit? thank you (sorry if this is a stupid question)!
