What Are My Chances?

<p>I am currently a student at UCSB, and I want to transfer to USC. Since the start of freshman year, I have received a 2.71 GPA and has been going in a downward trend. During Winter quarter, I managed to increase my GPA to a 2.82. My cumulative GPA also went up to a 2.60. I think I can keep this upward trend during the Spring Quarter. Can I still get accepted to USC despite my low GPA grades? (I know that I cannot make the criteria of USC's transfer students GPA average, which in 2010 was 3.6 GPA.) I know that USC looks at trends, but will this help me?</p>

<p>I am also going to take summer school that can help me with my General Education classes and some of my major classes. Does USC also look at these academic trends also? Can this help me get into USC?</p>

<p>Does people not responding means that I won’t get in? Also, I’m trying to transfer to Computer Science as my major by the way.</p>

<p>To put it frankly, very low chance.</p>

<p>Try to get around a 3.5 your sophomore year and your chances will improve dramatically.</p>

<p>The thing is, I am a sophomore.</p>

<p>okay so this is your spring quarter at UCSB? Well to tell you the truth, you don’t have a good chance to get in… if it was 3.3 or higher, i’d say yes. But you never know… maybe stick around at UCSB and transfer after another year? Did you apply this year?</p>

<p>Yeah. If this doesn’t work, I may have to attend community college to make my life easier.</p>

<p>Don’t give up man…**** happens but if you want USC, you gotta strive for it and thats possible for anyone.</p>

<p>keep up with the gang on the transfer thread!</p>
