<p>Hey everybody, has anyone who has already gotten in get into the music industry major at Thornton? I really want to get in, and I'm just curious to see who has gotten in and what their stats were like. Thanks so much!!!</p>
<p>^ I’m wondering the same thing! :)</p>
<p>I believe that final decisions were being made this week and last. I think the decision will come in the mail within a week or two.</p>
<p>D applied to Thornton for Music Industry. She was accepted to Dornsife as undeclared. We are waiting to hear as well. Good luck to all of you.</p>
<p>iamjen, what were your D’s stats? i am trying to get into Thornton as well!</p>
<p>sscott - My D’s sats are not typical, she was truly chosen holistically.
SAT 2040, ACT 31
GPA 3.99 UW/ 4.51 W
AP LIT 4, in AP CALC this year
Class Rank 1/92 at a small charter school
(She is the first student to ever be accepted to USC from her school)</p>
<p>EC: ASB 7-12, Treasurer 10-11, Special Activities Director 12
Yearbook 11-12, Yearbook Editor 12
National Honors Society 9-12, Vice President 12
Senior Leadership Team Treasurer, 12</p>
<p>Volunteers 3 hours a week at local blood bank.</p>
<p>Has been attending the local community colleges since she was 12. Will be earning her AA in Humanities in May, graduates from high school in June.</p>
<p>Has no musical talent, but loves the business side of the music industry.</p>
<p>Started her own promotion company in 2010. She promotes a small but internationally know band, holds contest, sell merchandise, keeps fans updated with new information regarding the band and touring information.</p>
<p>She has interviewed a number of business professionals, gathering information regarding management style and techniques.</p>
<p>Her passion came out in her essays. Her teacher recs were good, but I truly believe it was her passion, dedication, and hard work that sold USC on her.</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you.</p>
<p>Has anyone heard anything from Thornton yet?</p>
<p>D just received letter from USC stating she is being admitted into her first choice major: Music Industry. Our wait in finally over. I hope the wait for the rest of you ends soon. Good luck!</p>
<p>D was an early admit into Dornsife with a Dean’s scholarship.</p>
<p>Congrats iamjen1! Thanks for sharing the wonderful news!</p>
<p>I just got accepted into the music industry bs today. does anyone know of a group online to connect with everyone who’s been accepted?</p>
<p>cxly13 are you pupfresh</p>
<p>iamjen1 and cxly13, congrats!!!</p>
<p>On the music forum students are posting their acceptances to music schools/conservatories. Perhaps you may wish to add your moniker names to the list.</p>
<p>Congratulations!</p>
<p>@iamjen1 yes, i write for pupfresh periodically. how did you know?</p>
<p>Does anyone know how many Music Industry BS students they usually accept?</p>
<p>At the presentation that I went to with my D, they said approx. 45 students.</p>
<p>The Thornton School of Music is highly selective. Even though the school has various majors the entire freshmen class is well under 150 students.</p>
<p>When we attended an information session, I remember them saying about 45 students are accepted to Music Industry each year. However someone else posted that Thornton as a whole only accepts approx 150 students.</p>
