<p>Hi! I'm not new to college confidential and in the past its been really helpful to me. i was admitted to ucsd and uci, but neither really suited me when it came to my business major. i'm dying to transfer to usc and i would really appreciate if you can give me some feedback on my stats.</p>

<p>I currently go to a local community college in the LA area and will be completing 46 units by the end of this year. I only want to attend for one year and transfer right away!</p>

<p>So far I have completed 6 units and am in the process of another 16. I am a member of Alpha Gamma Sigma, an honor society. </p>

<p>I want to transfer to Marshall, then Leventhal for Accounting.</p>

<p>The above site has info about transferring into USC. You can read all of it & then contact USC for more info. It's important to be sure the courses you expect to transfer will actually transfer if you are admitted to USC as well. As the site says, transferring is very competitive. I believe SAT scores are considered less important for transfers than for prospective freshmen, because they can see how well you performed in community college instead, but you might wish to contact USC for clarification. You can also ask your advisor at community college how to boost your chances of being accepted as a transfer.
As you know, USC's Marshall School of Business is a difficult program to get into & maintain high grades in, but it is very well regarded.</p>
