I'm going to apply to USC with a 3.0. Anyone please tell me if this is a bad idea?!

<p>I am an international student and I'm currently a freshman but I really hate where I'm at right now so I'm dying to transfer out, preferably better ranked universities than the one I'm attending at the moment. Well, the first semester I was still adjusting to the transition from high school, both environmentally and academically. I don't have anything amazing to tell in my essay... Anything I can do to transfer to USC, better yet any other suggestions? I will greatly appreciate any realistic answers.</p>
