Chances and some other questions...

<p>So I'm a Florida guy who is falling for USC. I love the business program, and I eventually plan on working for disney (after some grad school I'm sure). I'm just getting sick of this east coast vibe... and after the onset of "winter" in Florida, I think I might do well to stay in some warmer climates.</p>

<p>I also would like to know my chances at the presidential/trustee scholarships. I know I'll at least get the national merit half-tuition scholarship, but I wasn't sure if I could get that and another one of the scholarships. I would also like to know how likely it would be for me to be invited to the Global Leadership Program.</p>

<p>Thank you very much for your time :).</p>

<p>Nope, you can only get either a half-tuition or a full-tuition scholarship. Keep your fingers crossed for the Trustee!</p>

<p>And your stats are spot-on, so I hope you'll get into our fabulous school!</p>

<p>Due to the high competitiveness of the Trustee scholarships, high emphasis is placed on things like your interview and your essays. There are more applicants with 4.3 GPA's than there are scholarships available, so they are looking for "something extra" from you. If your high school achievement record is any indication, I wouldn't be surprised if you possessed that extra edge.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>
