Are SATs the only thing USC consider?

I have 1180 in my SATs so I feel I have no chance at USC, however I was waitlisted at UCSD.
However, I do the IB Diploma and I currently have USCs average of 35 points. My unweighted GPA is about a 3.85 and my income bracket is $150000-$200000 so I can afford USC and don’t require financial aid. My essays and EC correlate in the sense that they showcase who I truly am and what I am capable to offer to the USC community.

Please be honest :frowning:

No. I suggest reading this article…

Good Luck

They usually give the BS answer of a holistic review

USC is needs blind in its admission. I truly believe that everyone has a shot in making into USC.
