Acceptance rate at Marshall School vs. USC as a whole

<p>Is the acceptance rate different at the Marshall School of Business vs. USC as a whole? If so, what is the acceptance rate at the Marshall School?</p>

<p>I’m not sure about what the exact acceptance rate, but I can tell you that Marshall is the easiest school to get into besides CLAS.</p>

<p>^seriously? I thought Marshall is pretty competitive given its ranking and reputation.</p>

<p>Taxi1113, you just brought hope into my life. haha. i also thought marshall was very difficult to get into.</p>

<p>I am confident that Taxi is wrong. Marshall is up there with the MOST difficult to get into. It’s not as difficult as the School of Cinematic Arts, but it’s up there with Viterbi as one of the most difficult.</p>

<p>i don’t know if Taxi has any stats, but if it shows a higher percentage of acceptance rate in marshall, it is probably due to the lower number of applicants applying. given Marshall’s relative national prestige, (#10 nationally for undergrad biz, i believe) i’m willing to bet the average marshall student’s grades/sat scores/etc are higher than USC as a whole.</p>

<p>According to Business Week:
[University</a> of Southern California: Undergraduate Profile ? BusinessWeek](<a href=“Businessweek - Bloomberg”>Businessweek - Bloomberg)</p>

<p>USC’s Selectivity–applicants admitted to undergraduate business program, 2008-09: 22%</p>

<p>About 24% for the whole USC. SO they’re about equal.</p>
