Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>hey i haven't heard from usc yet. i was wondering if i had a chance at all. my gpa is only a 3.6 but i improved each semester of high school and they said they take that into account on the website. my sat's are low too- like a 1820. but the thing is that i come from a private high school. and i'm a professional dancer (usc is all artsy so i hope this scores major points). and i got like 3 really good teacher recs when you only need 1. </p>

<p>hospital volunteer- 3 yrs
swim team- 3 yrs (1 yr on varsity)
classical dancer - 10 years and went pro 2 yrs ago
bio major</p>

<p>is that enough to give me at least a chance to get in? i also took a tour of the campus. thanks for the help in advance</p>

<p>I think you have a chance, but it isn't super. Last year the average accepted student had a 3.8, average enrolled 3.7. Your SATs are also slightly below average for the accepted students.</p>

<p>However . . . </p>

<p>1) You show an upward trend
2) There are many subjecteive things (like your recs) that will come into play</p>

<p>I can't tell you for sure, I know your stats are <em>slightly</em> below average for the admitted student (last year), but I think you have a chance.</p>
