2018 - 2019 USC Transfer [Viterbi]

i made this thread for prospective Viterbi Transfer students to chat!

o, hey, hi, hello

This wait is taking forever. First acceptance last year for viterbi wasn’t until may 20th :frowning:

Sup bois, TTP applicant, hope we all hear back soon. Apparently another TTP applicant heard back in March, but I’m glad I’m not the only one on here that applied to Viterbi

hey guys. Would you guys mind sharing your stats and classes taken as an engineering student at your ccc.

Last semsester I took calc 2, physics 1, a writing course, and a intro CS course. This semester I’m taking phys 2, calc 3, and a few GEs

classes:
Physics I,II,III
Calculus I,II,III, DE
Java I,II, Advanced Data Structures, C++
Chem 1
Currently taking Circuits, Linear, and migjt drop discrete structures, GPA is definitely on the low side (under 3.6), but i hope they give me a chance based on all courses completed, and my strong essays

Classes:
Physics I
Calculus I, II, III, Linear, Differential
Chem 1
Intro C++, Advanced C++, Data Structures C++, Intro Java, Advanced Java

3.89

Got waitlisted at UCLA’s CSE and USC’s decision’s waiting is really a torture for me rn…

@csumit are you currently a freshman?

@csumit dam that sucks being a ttp applicant and not hearing back yet.

Really hoping to get in. Thanks everyone who posted stats, best of luck!

are you guys juniors or sophomores? because everyone has a lot more classes then i do

Are people taking a MatLab class? I’m thinking of taking summer course. I know it’s a pre req for a lot of classes and heard some professors expect experience in junior level classes.

@Kvadhan789 I’ll be a junior, transferring from a CC

Got a winter grade request for viterbi computer science
