<p>Hello, I was wondering if anyone heard of any successful student transferring to USC with a low GPA? I have a 2.81 GPA from a community college with good extracurricular activities. I am getting a little discourage to apply. ):</p>
<p>Why do you have a low GPA? Is there a good reason for it?</p>
<p>That will be very difficult, especially coming from a community college with good ECs. I would wait another year at your community college (if you’re a freshman) and shoot for 4.0s, or as close as you can get. Involve yourself in as many extra-curriculars as you can and try to have a significant impact on those organizations (ideally as an officer).</p>
