Got the letter in the mail, haven’t asked any of my classmates if they had received it as well. I’ve read that only 15-20 students are accepted. What are my chances? If any of my stats would help, I’ll comment them below.
Are you academically and emotionally ready to skip your junior year of HS and start college next year? Would your parents be able to afford it? COA at USC is $75K. You would still be eligible for merit and/or need-based aid and, if accepted as an RHP, you will automatically receive a 1/4 tuition scholarship ($13K).
It’s highly competitive. I’m sure you can get the info re: number of applicants from Admissions, but I’d imagine that there is an under a 10% acceptance rate. You would probably need pretty high stats and really strong recommendations to be considered.
I’m in state, but I’d still be paying 150k+ for 4 years so it’s honestly not much better.
