DREAM Club is some club I started where we place incoming refugees in local homes - last year our big project was finding an apartment for a family from Syria and we got all the supplies and furniture and set it all up for them.

I wasn’t even considering USC until, like, last week when I started looking into the Honors College and now I reeeeeeally want to go. Based on my stats, how are my chances? My essays are ok right now, I’m getting them reviewed so hopefully they’ll be better. I’m really nervous aahhh ok thanks!
Oh also I live in NC. I don’t know if that makes a difference.

PS If anyone wants to guess my chances for UNC Chapel Hill, Duke, Davidson, NYU, or UVA while you’re at it that’d be great lol

PSS I posted this twice once on the wrong thread #classic

Your scores are low even for a regular admission to USC. Raise your SAT/ACT by 100+/2+ points. USC is very score oriented!

OP, do you mean University of South Carolina Honors or University of Southern California?

I assume you are talking about University of Southern California, which does not have an honors college. I am referring to University of South Carolina. And my scores are above the 50th percentile for University of Southern California SAT, ACT, and GPA (though if it did have an honors college I am sure I would not get in).

University of South Carolina Honors :slight_smile:

@carolinamom2boys

@uclaparent9

I meant the one in California!
(Did not University of Southern California secured the “USC” abbreviation for itself after a legal battle a couple of decades ago?)

I’m not sure @uclaparent9 - I’m from the East Coast, so here it is just assumed that USC = University of South Carolina. Sorry for the confusion :slight_smile:

I am actually sorry if I misled you!
