Any responses are appreciated!

Your GPA and test scores are on target. It will come down to your EC’s and essays. I would say you stand a good chance.

Good Luck.

Thanks for helping out @Gumbymom

Your scores perhaps are a bit low for score-hungry USC (no offense … I am a USC graduate myself)!

Still you have a good chance!

Good chance, GPA is solid, test scores could be better but i believe that they are around average for USC
ECs may or may not be that good depending on how well you can write about them, but for USC i dont think that matters too much…

also a piece of advice: being world traveled is not an ec, probably should not include it in your app, colleges might think you are trying to exaggerate your ecs (which everyone does of course, but avoiding it being too obvious is good)
