<p>Hello all, I really want to go to USC. I have a 2100 SAT and 4.4 cumulative GPA. However, only one of my parents works (the other is disabled) and I am afraid I will have no chance to even think about USC. Do you guys know if USC gives their students lucrative financial aid.</p>
<p>yes they do. i didnt get any...but they do.</p>
<p>USC promises to meet 100% of every student's need, as determined by USC, as long as the required paperwork is submitted on time. The Fafsa and Profile are used.</p>
<p>dt123, what is the Fafsa and profile you speak of?</p>
<p>If your EFC turns out to be low enough, USC may even give you close to a full ride from need based grants.</p>
<p>USC is fantastic at meeting aid. They're probably better at it than my alma mater. Definitely look into it!</p>
<p>That FAFSA is the "Federal application for student aid." It's the first step toward getting fin aid.</p>
<p>The CSS profile is another step in determining your financial aid</p>
