<p>As fall and spring positions get settled into place, pretty much all of us know when we'll be attending SC. Congrats on those who got bumped to fall! and for those (like me!) who remain committed for the spring semester I'll see you for orientation >: )</p>
<p>Anyways, as we all know, the path of a Spring Admit diverges when Fall hits, and that one semester period leaves a lot of room for some exploration before we start USC. I was wondering if any former Spring admits (or any Trojan for that matter) have any words of wisdom on how to spend that extra time off or even what you found helpful to get adjusted; i.e. I'm in Annenberg for communications so I was wondering what GE's I should knock out with community college (if there are any equivalents) instead of taking at SC. </p>
<p>I know this a really vague and general question, but I'm willing to receive any type of reply that would help me and any other spring admit! =) </p>
<p>It also has links to other useful pages. Once I get graduation out of the way I’ll start choosing the classes I’m going to take in the fall and check with the counselor to make sure I’m on the right track. Hope this helps you out a bit :)</p>
<p>@btbam yup I live in SoCal. I’m not sure about the games yet since I don’t know if we will qualify for the student season tickets. Even though, I’ll be for sure watching them, and maybe by next year we’ll get a playoffs for college ball so we don’t get screwed over again (wishful thinking) haha</p>
<p>thanks EMJ that’s going to help a lot when I plan for first sem, I’m going to wait until graduation is over to sort things out too. :)</p>
<p>Yes, you qualify for football tickets. My daughter, a spring admit this year, joined a club team/ It was a really good way to get acquainted with SC and meet people.</p>
<p>Sorry, if I came across as the Voice of the Mommy. (music crashes in the background). It is a bit challenging breaking into a school in spring. My daughter played a sport on the national level for years and found, for her, that a quick entree for campus life was her sport…only it is coed on the club level. (her sport is coed at this level…can’t say that about all the sports.) </p>
<p>Daughter also found, in her case, that she knew a lot of people since she is a local kid. That was great for her.</p>
<p>The coed part is, a good thing. (I reread my post and it could be construed as possibly not a good thing. It is a very good thing.)</p>
<p>And since you too are local, you will probably run into people you know all the time. My daughter didn’t pay for a meal for 3 weeks at the beginning of school. She kept running into guys she had known through her life…some she knew from the time she was 3 months old. Again, easier transition.</p>
