<p>Low GPA of 2.8, but a lot of extracurricular's fill my resume. Four years varsity swimming, two years in college as well, lots of community service, Huntington Beach Lifeguard past 4 years, USC 1st generation legacy, etc.</p>
<p>Applied last year but got rejected, anyone know if consistency in applying will increase chances?</p>
<p>Honestly, that GPA is extremely low for admissions to USC. The average gpa of admits the last couple years is in the 3.7 to 3.8 range, even for transfers. Though your extra curriculars are good, I don’t think they’ll overcome that gpa. It never hurts to apply again though your chances will not increase from applying a second time. It might be a good idea to start making a list of other potential schools to apply to that would be more of a target for that gpa.</p>
<p>Agreed…read my thread, “not everyone can be a USC undergrad.” It’s not the end of the world. Try Oregon or Washington State or another PAC 12 school.</p>
