rejected from UCLA, still chance at USC?

<p>yeah, the UC is a totally different system than USC, well for any private school at that matter</p>

<p>UCs are getting harder to get in now because most people can not afford private schools and only apply to public schools, so yeah don't worry aobut ucla</p>

<p>nave462000 did u send ur teach recs to ucla..i thought ucla said specifically not to send them teacher recs or any other supplemental documents?..i could be mistaken but i thought i read that when i was applying..</p>

<p>haha yea....trojans are so much better</p>

<p>GBV: They throw out supplement documents and recommendations but they do ask for supplements from some people (augmented review for borderline applicants).</p>

<p>I got into USC at UCLA, despite UCLA being ranked lower on last years College Rankins</p>

<p>no i never mailed any recommendations to UCLA...well other than a letter on my behalf from a family friend who is on the board of directors of UCLA and is a major donor...</p>

<p>but that didn't work anyway - i guess she "requested" too many people this year</p>

<p>LOL i think getting rejected from UCLA just shows that you belong to USC</p>

<p>You absolutely have a chance. D was rejected last week by UCLA digital arts, and just got accepted to animation/digital arts at USC!</p>

<p>Hi I am a high school sophomore with just a 3.4 GPA, and slightly above average SAT scores. I am very active in extra curriculars, passionate about my causes, and I want so badly to get into USC. Is there any hope for me to get in? Does anyone have any recommendations now that could help me in two years when I apply?</p>

<p>^It depends on your high school. USC accepts a lot of students from D's high school. Her friend was accepted with 3.4 uw GPA and 2100+ SAT. You still have a chance to improve your GPA so you do have a shot.</p>

<p>i was rejected from ucla and usc accepted me</p>

<p>everyone can get into USC! my friend had his heart set on ucla, got rejected, and now i convinced him to love USC. </p>

<p>He got into USC on Saturday 22nd March. I still need to get my acceptance letter. I want it badly.</p>

<p>Students who were admitted to UCLA this year do not have higher GPA/SAT than those admitted to USC. D has a friend who is not a URM got accepted to UCLA with much lower SAT/GPA than her. In fact she often refers to him as forever slacking off. However, he has a deep passion for religion and that might be the reason he got in. I think UCLA prefers one to stick to one activity throughout high school, at least this is what they told us at a campus tour.</p>

<p>funny. today. i got two letters in the mail. one was the admin package from USC. the other was the rejection letter frm UCLA</p>

<p>i tossed the rejection letter aside and laughed at it while gloating with my red folder beaming brightly in my hands. :D that's a pretty damn good feeling. LOL</p>

<p>Congrats. I hope it's worth the wait.</p>

<p>do you guys think it is worth it to attend USC with no scholarship?</p>

<p>azhao525, same thing happened to me lol</p>
