<p>I have seen it mentioned twice in this thread. How can you actually apply for spring? I thought that they only allowed you to apply during the fall then you have a slight chance of getting accepted for spring… </p>
<p>Guys, I was accepted as a transfer to the Marshall Biz School as Pre-Accounting this year, if any of you got questions PM me!</p>
<p>@Numbersz I don’t think you can apply for spring. They only put you in as a spring admit if they want you but they don’t have enough room for you in the fall semester</p>
<p>@porkgrind That’s what I thought, I just saw it mentioned more than once in this thread that people were applying for Spring. </p>
<p>hey guys! i’m currently a student at Pasadena City College and I am hoping to transfer to USC in the Fall of 2015!
My major is Electrical Engineering.
Here is my Fall and Spring Schedule:
FALL:
Calculus 1&2
Sociology 1</p>
<p>SPRING:
Calculus 3
Chemistry
Physics</p>
<p>I currently have a 3.3 GPA but it should get to about a 3.5 by the end of Spring if all goes well. The first few semesters were rocky during GE’s but since I chose my major I have been getting all A’s and B’s in math and science classes.</p>
<p>Hey guys! I have a question and hopefully someone can help me out!</p>
<p>I’m a freshman taking classes at a local CC in Los Angeles. I am hoping to transfer to USC as a sophomore as a Political Science major. My question is: Do I have to fulfill every single category on the USC Articulation Agreement? Or can I take any transferrable courses that I want? </p>
<p>I couldn’t get some classes that meet the categories on the Articulation Agreement, so I worked around it and instead decided to take other transferrable courses, but I am wondering if that will negatively affect my chances of getting in. Also, by the end of this year I will only have 27 credits, but I will take another class in the summer to make it 30. Thanks so much!</p>
<p>@buddhazencloud Thanks for the encouragement and good luck in transferring :)</p>
<p>@dimples12 It is not required to fulfill the categories on the USC articulation agreement. However, it is highly recommended since every USC student who plans on graduating needs to have all of the categories fulfilled as part of the USC CORE general education. The purpose of fulfilling at least some of the USC CORE categories before you transfer is so that you can start on your major courses as soon as you transfer. Hope that helps and good luck!</p>
<p>@mlusikyan I’m from PCC too! As long as you work hard for the next two semesters, I’m sure you’ll get in!</p>
<p>As far as I know, you’re not required to fulfill any of the Articulation Agreement Per say; but it will make your transition a lot easier. Focus on classes dealing with your major, and if possible, try to take the classes that can transfer over. The only thing I would say to do for sure is their Diversity requirement, which can be like Sociology, and all your writing classes. They require you to fulfill your writing requirement.</p>
<p>Hope that helped</p>
<p>@jakecasino Thanks Jake! I sure hope so. The next 2 semesters are going to be BRUTAL!
Good luck with your transferring! What classes are you taking this fall?</p>
<p>@mlusikyan @jakecasino If you guys had to guess, would you say a course titled “sociology of gender” would satisfy the diversity requirement?</p>
<p>@NCXfer Absolutely: “The Diversity requirement addresses relations among groups marked by differences in age, ability, ethnicity, gender, language, race, religion, sexual orientation, nationality and social class. Courses in this category challenge undergraduates
to respect these differences, to analyze their social and cultural consequences, and to relate this information to conflicts in a contemporary American context.
Diversity courses are typically (but not exclusively) offered by ethnic studies and gender studies departments.
introduction to Sociology also fulfills this requirement.”</p>
<p>@ncxfer depends on your school’s articulation agreement with usc. But it should be, yes.</p>
<p>here is the one for my school. try to find something similar to your school’s.</p>

<p>Thanks! Also my CC is in North Carolina, so the Articulation history for my CC is very thin.</p>
<p>@jakecasino Thanks so much for your help! I’m only missing 2 of the categories so I don’t mind taking them at USC. But you dont think it will make my chances of getting accepted harder, do you? Thanks again :)</p>
<p>I doubt it. I’ve been bugging like 8 different people at usc with the sand questions. They don’t require you to have them done. </p>
<p>Biggest things they look at. Upward trends in your grades with rigorous courses in your major, your English classes, and your math. Those are the biggest </p>
<p>New here by the way (well not new I been stalking these threads for the last year or so) and thought it was time to expose myself because I will be applying as of the fall. I have a few question but I will start with my biggest. I am a going to be applying as a psych student from a cc. I have finished all of the articulated courses that usc ask for. My biggest concern is spanish I hate and suck at it. Do you really need 3 semesters of college spanish or do you know anyone who’s got in the psych department with 2 or even less language classes? Please anwser me if anyone knows gracies.</p>
<p>Hey, welcome to the forums.
I believe engineering majors are the only ones that don’t require a foreign language. If I’m not mistaken, you can just take them at USC. if I not, just take some foreign language class. Doesn’t have to be Spanish! I’m sorry, I wish I could’ve been more help </p>
<p>yay for engineering majors ;D</p>
<p>Any help is good thank you. I just wanted to know cause I will be taking Spanish 2 in the spring and might have to take spanish 3 at usc if I get admitted of course.</p>
<p>@mlusikyan Engineering majors = everyone in Viterbi, right?</p>
