<p>This is a repeat post...</p>
<p>On Facebook there is a group for USC Class of 2013. For you students from other areas a large number of photos have been posted of the campus and some of the historic buildings. It is in a section at the end of the threads.</p>
<p>Discussion topics are found on dorms, roommates, Explore and scholarships.</p>
<p>I’m apart of one of them. Do you have the link to the specific one you are talking about, I think there are three total?</p>
<p>Nagooya,
This is an open group. Go to Facebook. Click on search for “USC Class of 2013”. There are nearly 200 who have signed on there. That is where the photos are located.</p>
<p>It has the interlocking SC letters in cardinal on the right side.</p>
<p>god, I’m actually contemplating on making a facebook so I can join the USC group and find roommates, etc. XD</p>
<p>You don’t need a facebook to find roommates. Just use the roommate search tool on your USC housing application online. That’s how I found a girl who wants to room with me and I her next year. </p>
<p>Idk if you’ve set up your housing or not, but it’s a relatively cool tool to use. You fill out this little profile, and albeit a bit rigid, gives other people a general idea of who you are as a person (more along the lines of what you generally do with your time in the dorm lol) and then you can search other people who have posted their housing application, and the site even gives you a percentage of how much your answers to the profile matched with theirs. Then, if you find someone you think is compatable with your living standards and habits, you have the opportunity to email them right on that site!</p>
<p>Best of luck wanderlusting :)</p>
<p>Once I’m accepted (I’m being optimistic) I shall join!</p>
<p>Oh, thank you, 12layla12! I quickly signed up for housing just so I could have a decent spot in line, and I merely assumed that USC would assign you a roommate if you filled out that form. I’ll check that out right now, thanks again!</p>
<p>Hi,
I am sorry if my post implied it was necessary to join Facebook to find a roommate. It was only posted so you seniors can check out the photos and the discussion topics. </p>
<p>Check out 12lalay12’s post for her advice on roommate selection.</p>
<p>The facebook site is still a really good tool to use when wanting to hear about the Explore sessions and pics.</p>
<p>Wanderlusting, once you’ve found someone you’d like to room with, and they also want to room with you, you can add eachother as roommates. Just make sure that you both have 100% matching profiles and 100% matching housing preferences, and USC will try their best to match you up with them. </p>

<li>A word of advice. Since the USC housing is first come first serve basis, there is a little discrepancy with requesting a roommate and getting your preferred housing. USC will average your positions on the housing order list, so if you signed up early and your roommate signed up really late, be prepared that you might not be able to get into your first housing choice. However, if you both signed up earlier on, then I’m positive you will have no problem at all getting into your preferred housing. Best of luck to all of you!! Soo excited to be a Trojan next year :)</li>

<p>More photos have been added this week.</p>
<p>On the Facebook page is a pro/con list from a current SC student about dorm selection.</p>
