Anyone applied for fine art?

<p>If so, can you post stats please/ any helpful fun facts about admissions there? thank you:)</p>

<p>I applied to fine art at Roski- I haven’t heard if I got in or not yet, though, so I don’t know what help I can be about admissions. Right now my application status says that it has been “forwarded to the admissions committee”. not sure what that means lol, but there’s a lot of speculation in the other forums.</p>

<p>but here are my stats:
SAT: 2170 (660 M, 710 CR, 800 WR)
GPA: 4.02 W, not sure what it is unweighted
8 AP classes over the past two years (including AP studio art this year and AP Art History last year)
4 on the AP Art History exam, and a 5 on the APLAC exam
extracurriculars include soccer, singing, theatre, and a ton of community service</p>

<p>how about yours?? you’re the first person i’ve seen on cc applying to roski too this year :)</p>

<p>Wow tdawsn8, amazingly high stats for a Fine Arts major. That is really great!</p>

<p>thank youu :slight_smile:
i hope its good enough!</p>

<p>My daughter also applied to USC - Roski as a fine arts major. She had two portfolio reviews at Roski and they felt her portfolio was very strong but her stats are below USC averages:</p>

<p>GPA: 3.5
ACT: 26
AP’s: 7 or 8 (can’t remember)
plus 2 summer school photography classes at UCLA and one photo class and one advanced french class at The Paris-Sorbonne University.</p>

<p>So USC is definitely a reach for her stats-wise and we’re not sure if a strong portfolio can make enough of a difference in the Admissions Office. We’re guessing she has maybe a 50% chance. Nothing ventured, nothing gained! We’ll know shortly!</p>

<p>Good luck to all of the Roski candidates! </p>

<p>wow, tdawson, you are amazing!</p>

<p>My SAT is 2,140, total. My GPA is lower than their usual, but I am from a rigorous private school and had medical problems the first few years. Now that I have solved my complications, I am (or would be if my school ranked!) the top of my class in each subject, so I am hoping that this will help!</p>

<p>I also have outstanding volunteer work and I am currently showing art around Manhattan and have just signed a three to five year contract to show worldwide! </p>

<p>I don’t know if all of this will be enough, though <em>gulp</em>. USC is such an amazing school and it has everything that I want; it would be BEYOND a blessing to get in :0</p>

<p>Good luck to everybody, though! Post when you get your answers; it’d be fantastic if we all got in and could get to know each other beforehand!</p>

<p>Wow! My daughter just got her acceptance to UCLA - Art! Come on USC don’t let me down here guys.</p>

<p>wow, that’s still a great school though! good luck:)</p>

<p>Congrats Wheaty, but keep the faith…she will get in a SC.</p>

<p>SAT: 1790 ( 600 Reading, 620 Math, 570 Writing)
GPA: 4.00 weighted
6 AP classes over the past three years and 1 Honors ( AP Euro, AP Chem, AP Lang, AP Gov, AP Calc AB, AP Lit, Honors Pre Calc)
3 on AP Euro, 2 AP Lang, 1 AP Chem
extracurriculars: Editor-In-Chief of Yearbook, 3 year captain of basketball team, Youth City Council, a ton of community service, and a job
Other: I’m also half Puerto Rican which I think really helped and my portfolio was very strong. I had good essays and strong teacher recs.
Although my stats are low, I go to a very competitive public school. I feel like being Editor-In-Chief and my portfolio is what really got me accepted.</p>
