<p>TAP: I'm in this program, but will be 1 unit short of scholars requirement...

<p>I'm worried about 4 W's I have... Will I have trouble applying to USC? I know that UC's are pretty lenient on W's but not sure about USC...</p>
<p>Also, because of my current immigration status, it's gonna be hard for me to find a loan (can't get federal loan at all).It's nearly impossible for me to pay for public schools like UC's even if I get in, so it's prob good idea for me to apply to private schools like USC. Could anyone recommend me some ideal private schools with my stats? Anywhere is the country is fine.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
