How much aid/need met does USC give?

Transfer Students

<p>So I see from pledge lists across the web that USC does not meet full need. However, I do hear that they give somewhat good finaid. My family makes roughly 38k anually. How much finaid would they give?</p>

<p>USC (University of Southern California) guarantees to meet 100% of USC-determined need using the CSS/Profile for all domestic undergraduates, including transfer students. To get a rough estimate of how much aid you might get, use the institutional method calculator available at the College Board (the SAT people) website.</p>

<p>Additional info here: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/839970-faq-usc-financial-aid-2010-a.html?highlight=usc+efc[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-southern-california/839970-faq-usc-financial-aid-2010-a.html?highlight=usc+efc&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>If you are inquiring about University of South Carolina, I do not have information about their financial aid.</p>

<p>Good luck</p>

<p>hmm… is that for everyone (US citizen/resident) or just California residents?</p>

<p>USC is a private university and gives neither admissions nor financial aid preference to California residents. USC guarantees to meet 100% of USC-determined need using the CSS/Profile for all domestic undergraduates, including transfers, from all 50 states.</p>

<p>And yes, in most cases both US citizens and permanent residents qualify for financial aid.</p>
