Transfer chances at USC?

[RelientK]

<p>I posted this up on the "What are my chances forum," but no one responded, so hopefully I'll get some help here. I am going to be a sophomore at Hofstra University (pretty low-ranked academic school in Long Island), and am looking to transfer to USC for Fall 2008. My major is currently electrical engineering and I am looking to keep it that way if admitted into USC.</p>

<p>Here are some of my stats:
SAT's: 1390 (760 M, 630 CR) and a 630 on writing so total 2020
SAT II- Math 1c: 800
Chemistry: 640
Biology: 690
Unweighted GPA: About 93
Weighted GPA: Over 95
I took a rigorous schedule, also I held a couple of leadership positions with my school SGA and Key Club.</p>

<p>College GPA thus far: 3.68, Major: Electrical engineering
I am a Senator in SGA and Freshman Orientation Leader.</p>

<p>Assuming I work even harder next year and bring my GPA to 3.75 and above, what are my chances? BTW I have NO legacy at all.</p>

<p>Also, through collegeboard.com, I calculated my EFC to be circa $13,000. So with that information and my grades, what type of financial aid package do you think I can expect from each of these schools. Also if anyone has any other suggestions for schools to look into, please let me know.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I'm sorry I'm not familiar enough with transfer chances to give my opinion- but a few points I do know:
-Your high school records will not be given much consideration if you have completed 30 college units.<br>
-Legacy is a VERY minor factor in admissions, if any- don't worry about that.</p>

<p>I'm sure you've done this but go through the transfer info on the Viterby (Engineering school) website.
